    From my Manhattan Window

    Hi Arthur! Gary here, joined last night. I never thought I would become a birder but combined that with my photography and became hooked. I live in NW lower Michigan which is good for birding but now that I live 'way' out in the country I often need to drive get my fix. I don't know your...

    Magee Marsh / Crane Creek

    Hi Steve, I just joined bird forum and found your post about Magee Marsh. I live near Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and am hard on the photo/birding hobby these days so your post is "timely" for me. I'm planning my first trip to Magee Marsh next May so I'll be digging into your notes...

    Birds in Flight for beginners...

    Hi Apodidae49 I just joined yesterday and read your post about camera settings just now. I thought I would respond as Birds in Flight pics are the Holy Grail for me. I shoot Canon products and am not familiar with Nikon. That said you have made a great choice with Nikon so you are on your...

    Ring-billed Gull

    This gull is the first "Bird in Flight" photo I ever shot. Funny that the quality isn't really up to par, but I like the way the sun backlights the picture and plays through the feathers turning the photo to black and white. Yep! This is my "Gateway" bird, the one that...

    Comment by 'Guest' in media 'American Kestrel landing with prey in talon'

    Marc, very very nice. Two things popped out at me; Bird in flight photos are the "Holy Grail" in my book, and I like the action shown in most of the body but lessoning toward the head. Ok, three things. I have found the American Kestrel to be very difficult to catch in flight...

    Dunlin

    This bird was seen at Glenn Haven, Michigan, a goest town in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. The Dunlin is a fairly common shorebird around the world but I was excited at my first seeing them at age 64. Funny how I missed so much when my eyes were closed.

    Bald Eagle

    This shot was taken from a bluff along the shore of Lake Michigan in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, a federal park. This is the only time I have been above these magestic birds.
