Messing around with shutter speed this morning in hopes of getting the hummingbird pics. I was also going back and forth between auto and manual focus because not once but TWICE I missed a shot of my resident bald eagle because the camera wouldn't focus fast enough. :)
Two American Goldfinches beak fighting. :)

lisa, most of the american goldfinch flock has migrated to wherever. :) There are still some hanging around my house. We usually have some all year along with the lesser goldfinches
