Sparrows, Grackle and a House Finch

Spent some time in the evening practicing with my new monopod and had quite a few different types of birds visit..nothing exotic or new but I thought they were worth sharing. Nothing spectacular but fun shooting nonetheless.

    Hi Larry –

    I use a tripod quite a bit but the images above were taken using a monopod.

    Each photo listed has the exif data intact and has the settings for each photo. If you have any other questions, let me know.
