I need to do that somewere warm also. Right now the temperature is 16 °F / -9 °C, Northwest winds 10 to 20 mph with gusts up to 35 mph. Chance of snow 70 percent. You think I will photograph any insects today?

Enjoy the spring Steve

Hi Doug. Sorry to hear of your cold weather. We have a scheduled top of 32°C today. Fine and sunny with a gentle breeze. I got out fairly early before the breeze sprang up and photod some insects. Posts to come later

Thanks for showing us the "bird" there Steve.

Beautiful cockatiel, Sue would like this image, she loves them. I suppose this would qualify as a close-up, not really being a macro

, however, just a reminder to all of us, please consider your subject(s) before posting, as to whether they fit the particular forum(s) outline. We all...well some of us

have been guilty of a few, I suppose. Nice shot there Steve.

Yes it is Steve and yours is a close-up of course.

In the past we have had, on occasion, a few that were not, chickens, dogs, cats, etc.. and sometimes it's a fine line to distinguish which is or isn't, so just a reminder to everyone, self included

Isn't there a snake you can photograph somewhere?

Looks like my Dusty

. I love these birds. Usually we post these images in the Community forum. We did have a pet forum once, but too little participation so it was removed.
