Starling.....

This image was one that I took this afternoon, while keeping my other eye on the Olympic hockey games. Starlings are not my favourite bird that visits my feeder, as they tend to be very scrappy and push the other Juncos and Sparrows out. There seems to be a shortage of Blue Jays, and Cardinals this year, but the Downy Wood Peckers visit daily, which I enjoy. Anyway, since it was a really nice day here, I decided to shoot a little from my back deck. It didn't take me long to realize that my ability to shoot bird photos is going to need a lot of work, before I feel somewhat competent. Birds and wildlife photography requires a special set of skills, and even though I am a bit long in the tooth, it is not too late to improve in that area....so, wish me luck. Cheers!
