Frequent Guest

I just had to show you one more photo of one of the peach-faced love birds that have been frequenting my yard lately. With my new telephoto lens, I’m able to snap a few good shots without scaring them off.

  1. Excellent bird photo. I like all the green tones here. I have a bench from where I can sit and shoot with my zoom lens. Great fun it is.

  6. Nice! I can't wait to tell my husband I need a new lens. :-) These little birds are so cute. Do they stay through the winter?

  7. Love this bird shot!! I want some of these to come to my yard but they wouldn't like the fact that it was 48f degrees outside when I got up.
    Happy Birthday!!

  8. A super shot! Great colors and very sharp. We had bunches of green parrots in South Florida ... they became a nuisance and were very loud...

    And a reliable source mentioned that today was a special day for you, so I shall add my Happy Birthday wishes! Hope everything goes your way, today, and always!

  11. What a great shot, Sharon. There is a website where you can see where the peach-faced love birds have been spotted in Phoenix and they're been within two blocks of my home but all I have here are pigeons! This fellow looks like he might be perched in a eucalyptus tree. He is just beautiful! I hope you take even more pics of these lovely birds to share with us!
