Worth the work. Don Don MacNeill donmacneill@eastlink.ca ----- Original Message ----- From: Darrell To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2011 9:06 PM Subject: [NatureNS] Re: Fox Sparrow (Cooks Lake) I seen my Fox Sparrow about 10:00am this morning so quietly went outside and as soon as I peaked around the corner of my house it went into the thicket. (lol) So this evening about 6:00pm I went out and layed my foam sleeping mat out and a green fleese blanket over top of me covering my body, head & face. (picture a sniper) I had my sprawl tripod & camera with 580 flash out in front of me to wait for the elusive Fox Sparrow's appearance at dust. Watching the Junko's & Chickadee's for an hour when finally at 7:10 it hopped out into the open, then back in out of sight. About 5 minutes later it returned, with some anxious moments wondering if I was going to capture it or not I finally captured two images, then it was gone. My shoulders and back were killing me but well worth it for the very exciting hunt and captures. Loved it! The first two images in the bird gallery are of the Fox Sparrow, click on to enlarge. There are other bird galleries as well if you go to main first. http://abolitphotos.exposuremanager.com/g/birds Might try again tomorrow night for better images but won't go out until about 6:30. :~) Taken near Cooks Lake, Halifax County.
