81 DEGREES IN WIMBERLEY, TEXAS


I went outside to enjoy the beautiful 81 degree record setting temperature.
I was taking a photo of the berries on a yaupon holly when I looked up and saw this mockingbird. Someday I am determined to
have a camera that will take good bird photos, but for now I am happy with this mockingbird image
(just as it came out of the camera) under our beautiful Central Texas sky...taken while I was thinking about advise from
Herb, who to me is the bird photographer extraordinaire.

Nikon Coolpix 4500
1/204s f/5.8 at 32.0mm iso100 full exif

Petesie, the berries really framed the mockingbird. Bravo.

The holly framed it quite well, almost as though you planned it. Nice Mockingbird capture. The red berries add a nice touch.
