Bird ID Toolbar

As you know by the pictures I post I am into bird watching just about as much as I am into house building. 

Here is a little Spotted Towhee (formerly know as Rufous sided).  The great thing about the zoom on this camera is you can capture the bird without them even knowing you are looking at them.  They are more relaxed and doing ordinary bird things rather than being concerened about you. 

Since I am at my computer most of the time I can't tell you how excited I am about a new tool-bar that ID's birds.  You can find the link here .  It is based on the whatbird website and is just awesome to have right on the tool-bar for easy reference when I see a new bird out my window.

Back to my camera. I love the way my camera makes the water look when I take pics of ducks and geese. Here is a pair of Gadwall that I spotted on Greenlake.

American Wigeon

This camera also has an awesome macro lens.

This little mushroom is only about 1/4" tall. 

This is frost on some seaweed at Ruby Beach.  The best part is that it is all automatic.

The lens was about 2" from this bird nest.
