    Not fantastic pics, but my first goldfinch spotting and first half decent pic of a Jay in N.London cemetery.
    the jay is straight from camera the goldfinch had some lightness added to bring out the colour for identification as it was a quick snap on way home from cemetery, the birds seem to be very happy with social distancing.
    Credit goes to my girlfriend for spotting the jay in a tree in the first place, once i been squinting through the live view my normal eyesight cant see sh.......much for a good few minutes away from the camera.
    Oh and of course i had to include a fox which was taking a nap. goldfinch1.jpg jay1.jpg fox1.jpg

    The fox doesn't seem that bothered with your presence. It helps to have an extra pair of eyes at times.

    Nice pictures.

    Having someone tag along can be a big help. Good to see that you are able to get out and do some photography as well.

    yeah i'd not been out in days and i dont have a garden so cemetery is a good place to go,
    next time i need to take my kit lenses out for the M mount so i can work out a lens size for pics of trees, 100mm way to close
    i'd like to get a canon or sigma art for that so i can use my ext tubes as well for options.
    atm i can only use my ef ext tubes with my sigma 100-400, my only ef lens
