Ever have one of those days? Of course you have. And I had one today. So to decompress after work I grabbed my camera and spent some time in the sanctuary that is our back yard and relaxed among the sounds of many different birds chirping away. And I even managed to snap off about 160 or so frames.
Being a cloudy afternoon it was a little on the darker side today. As such I had to adjust and use a higher film speed and a bit slower shutter speed than I like to use when shooting wildlife. But I made do. Oh there a lot of tweaking to be done but I think today's photo is pretty good. It's not a masterpiece but I like it. I hope you do too.

A little dark huh? When I look at this RAW image I don't feel bad about the final version.
