What a magnificent little bird the clarity is amazing. Feels like i can reach out and touch it. Is it at a feeder?

I think this is some variety of Thread-Waisted Wasp; I saw it while in the yard and took a bunch of pics, but only one semi-focused. I had my camera set to macro, but I should have increased my shutter speed It was just darting all around, much like a Hoverfly.

Next time...

Hi,

WOW; what a beautiful bird Greenhorn; thanks for posting it; I wish I could take crisp clear pictures like you but I end up dashing to get the camera before the birds disappear.

Kind regards, Colin.

My daughter is a bird watcher, I get to go out with her on occasion. I've always liked photography and it is a big part of her bird watching efforts. I used to be the master and her the student, now I think she is the master and I am the student. I make sure we (she) is well equipped .

Not in the garden, but in the park next to the house.
Thrush digs a hole in the snow.

Thrush digs and bounces.

The bullfinch flew in.

Bullfinch began to dig, too.

Thrush drove him away.

Himself began to dig.

Bullfinch began to dig higher.

Probably there is a treasure here.

Looks like there is a treasure trove of seeds in that snow. How cool, and great shots, Larisa.

So many great shots on here I managed today to snap a robin &

to catch a fox I was trying to get a pair as they where fighting & making the Fighting sounds while jumping around but by the time my camera was out the other one had run off
