The best detail in a bird in flight photo comes to those who wait. It takes the right intensity of light, the right angle of approach of the bird and many other factors to achieve a photo as clear as this one. gb10024

Like an angel on a Christmas tree the great tit spreads his wings as he is about to land. gb10025

As the great tit flies off from the tree his is in his upward wing flap as he makes his escape. gb10026

Sunset is a great time for backlit photography. The peering face of the ever hungry squirrel is a delight. sku SQ10001

You cannot get much more "face to face" that this photo as the squirrel tried to stare me out. sku SQ10003

This squirrel was looking at some people having their lunch and was wondering if they had any peanuts by any chance. sku SQ10004

Depth of field is one of those enduring photographic terms. It means restricting the amount of subject in focus. In this case it was the face of the squirrel as his tail blurs into the background. sku SQ10005

This is a sweet photo with the squirrel stopping in the V shape of the tree and resting his paws on the tree. He looks calm and curious. sku SQ10008

I was happy with the two tree trunks in this photo and the forest in the blurry background. I also liked his outstretched paws as he looked to camera. sku SQ10009
