Doug, I a word, stunning. Thank you. Bill On Jun 2, 2007, at 5:19 PM, Douglas Herr wrote: Today's new bird picture, a common but elusive corvid of western North America. The Western Scrub Jay is noisy and combatitive when safely out of range, and comes within range only long enough to grab the crumb that fell from your sandwich: http://www.wildlightphoto.com/birds/corvidae/wsja02.html Alas, I had no sandwich so I got cloe the old-fasioned way: I waited and wached and melted into the background. Technical stuff: R8/DMR, 560mm f/6.8 with UET-R, shoulder stock & monopod. ISO 400, no noise reduction. Aperture: f/6.8, shutter speed: yes All comments welcome.
