Do IT till you\'re satisfied

But 5 times in 2 hours?!! Wowsers!

To make this more like a movie, choose options on the upper right, then "fast"

Here's the set, which has a description http://www.flickr.com/photos/rbtree/sets/72157630036362089/ I wrote:
Shortly after the pair returned from the South, they were greeted with their new platform nest, which they took right to. On this April 18 day, my first visit to the new nest, I was treated to a bawdy show, as the pair mated 5 times while many looked on--perhaps the crows and pigeons as well! "

Since I shot this April 18, I've learned how to set the camera to get more in focus action shots. Also, just Tuesday, I got the latest camera which has vastly improved auto focus, along with other new features. But it, like my Canon 5D Mark ll, which it replaced, is a full frame camera. The 7D, which I shot most of the osprey images with, has a smaller sensor, which means it is better for long telephoto shots.

Re: Do IT till you\'re satisfied

Today, I was trying out a new tool which intensifies a flash beam. It's only for long lenses. It seemed to work for the shots at the start of this set http://www.flickr.com/photos/rbtree/sets/72157626533749950/show/ which are of a nesting chickadee pair, which have a brood deep inside a cavity low down on the trunk of one of my dying amanogawa cherry trees. They are bringing grubs and spiders as fast as they can to the little chicks.

Here's a few of the over 400 images I shot with the new kick 5D Mark lll on Friday, sandwiched between bids, here and there around the Seattle environs. I didn't pick up the camera till Tuesday night http://www.flickr.com/photos/rbtree/sets/72157630088264880/show/
