    Default Portrait of a Jbird

    These birds are less than 18" from my lens.

    Question Feathers....

    Cool photo's. In The last photo, the breast feathers on that bird appear to have a black spot on a cream or white background. There's some potential fly tying material there....

    A macro lens would actually be the bomb for this situation!
