New Visitor

I've never seen Rose Breasted Grosbeaks in my yard before, so this was exciting for me.
Saw her through the kitchen window and 'grabbed' the camera....yikes, can't believe the high iso?lol
The male should show up shortly, hope-hope.

I love his colors with the blurred background colors.
I also have this bird feeder but it lies unfilled as I have a cat. ;(

Lovely bird, very nice capture.

sweet capture... the noise is so little with that 1600 - it must be your magic... :)))

Nice to see a new bird. I haven't seen one of these before. The camera's alway on the wrong setting at times like this:). The high ISO almost gives it the look of a painting. I like the subdued colors.

I'm so jealous, not only did
you have a new visitor but you
got a wonderful photo of her, too.
Lucky you. ~Bon
