Birds, Words, Pics + TV
I recently upgraded my Canon Rebel T7 camera to a mirrorless one from Canon, and I have been busy learning the new settings.
I have been using the birds in my backyard as subjects as I practice with the new camera. Despite some errors in figuring out how to master the new mirrorless camera, I have been pleased with the results so far.
So, I’m going to share some of these images taken in my backyard as part of my practice sessions.
My most recent trip to the Orlando Wetlands on Sunday, August 6, started by spotting a group of 16 (!) baby Black-bellied Whistling Ducks and ended with photographs of an elusive Belted Kingfisher.
Some are returning birds, like the Palm Warbler and the Yellow-throated Warbler. Some are new, like the female Painted Bunting. And some are regulars, like the Northern Cardinal and the Blue Jay.
They’re only here for breeding season but are seen year-round across Cuba, the Caribbean, and parts of Mexico and South America.
