Finally managed to get out and use the new camera and spotter.

Nothing crazy for pics. The birds are all shot through my spotter in my back yard. The tall bird photos are through my iphone. The other ones are crops.

What kind of bird is that last one? I had a couple of those drop in to feed last year.

A Varied thrush.

Great pics, Nock! You're gonna love that setup.

[hunter fisher]

when you take those pics, how far away are you? what kind of spotting scope are you using? what zoom are you at? looking at buying a vortex

Gonna have to call you "Knoxturnal" from now on! :-D

Cool pix!!

Distance is about 25 yards. Spotter is a swarovski ATM 80mm 25-50 wide angle lense. Camera is a Canon EOS-M with a 18-55 lens. I'm trying to find a 22mm pancake which will get my digi scoping with the canon way better. I don't go off the 25 power zoom. The picture size even after the crop is MASSIVE. I can count the seeds in the feeder with ease. It's 18megapixles.

Nice Pics I just got mine setup for digiscoping too.

Beautiful pictures ! Thanks for sharing, we have identical feeders and similar birds coming to ours.
Also this winter we have several Hummingbirds and we have been trying to get good pictures of them at their feeders, but the little guys move pretty quick.
They are also very territorial and chase one another away from the feeders.

i just went and picked up a 22mm pancake lens. Big difference!! I took a few pics today in the backyard of some quail but im sick of shooting birds. Ill post some more pics up when i feel that i have some more interesting stuff.

Got out the other day and found some deer. Some close......some not so close!

Went out for a session yesterday but forgot my memory card at home in the computer so i had to use my phone for all these next pics.

These 2 moose were a really really really long ways away. My spotter is on 50x and it was right at last light.

I got a new phone and decided to try out the slow-mo feature on some birds in my back yard. Id like to shoot an animal with this function rolling.
