Cold Bird II

February 23, 2015 by Tricia Booker Photography

Today I revisited some of my bird photos from last winter to check the lenses and settings I’d used, and I came upon this Dark Eyed Junco that I hadn’t edited. I spent some time playing with it, taking out some background clutter with Macphun Snapheal Pro and using Intensify Pro to produce a bit more contrast in the shadowed face. The lighting wasn’t ideal for this shot, but since birds are generally hard to pose, sometimes you have to […]

The woodpeckers–including the Red-Bellied version–were out in full force, no doubt enjoying the fresh suet. Even the Dark-Eyed Juncos, which usually feed on the ground below the feeders, were brave enough to join the others on the feeders. This bird took […]

One of my favorite birds to watch are the Dark-Eyed Juncos, who hang out in the yard over the winter months. They travel in small flocks, and they’re often the first ones up in the morning and the last to leave, taking care of the groundwork and cleaning up the spilled seeds in the yard. Sometimes, […]

This week the winter birds have really descended upon our bird feeders. With the unseasonably warm temperatures until recently, the yard has been relatively quiet. But after the dusting of snow earlier this week and a cold north wind that blew in, it seems the birds have come out of the “woodwork” (no pun intended) to duke it out at the feeders. I spent some time today watching them, and as my fellow blogger Karen Chandler noted in her post […]
