To Catch A Mocking Bird.




Through the screened porch
and from quite a distance...
 I have much to learn.

through the screen is hard to do, glad this was to CATCH a mocking bird and not the old movie/book.

I think they are great captures of the Mockingbird. They are cool birds. Have a happy day!

Those mocking birds can be mean. I watched on chase a hawk off once. Those are great shots, especially through the screen and at a distance!

Sandy Livesay said...

You captured the Mocking bird well with the lens on your camera. They're usually fast, and don't like to strike a pose.

You even got several different poses with that bird! It's very hard to focus them in from a distance, right?

i think you did well! shooting thru the screen adds a softness to the photos which is rather pleasing.

You did catch several photos though!

Very good pictures for thru a screen! Those mockers are something else! On attacked me once. So I am very wary of them now. But they are such talented vocalists!

The mockingbird has a strong sense of self-preservation, and just plain mean.

Well Done - you managed to catch quite a few pictures ... just love it.

All the best Jan

Better to catch than to kill. Love to hear them when they go through every song they know non-stop.

I'm thinking about the "song" and now singing it in my head. Great captures from inside the porch door. Been busy with outdoor work and getting things set up for summer. Today, putting up screen tent on large deck and furniture to boot. I gotta fit a ride in there somewhere. ha,ha Give M a big hug n hi n same to all. Healing thoughts to Maria. When she can chase you round the yard, she is healed, eh. ha,ha

I can only get bird shots through a smudged and spotted window but I post them anyway. You did well with these!
