Seen at Magee Marsh, Ohio on May 11, 2017. Taken with a Canon 7D camera, with Canon EF 100-400 Lens, which I borrowed from Canon.


As near as I can remember this another “lifer” for me!! I was made aware of it’s presence by a number of birders beside the marsh intently gazing in it’s direction!

I took this photo with a 7D Mark II camera and 100-400 lens I borrowed from the Canon folks at their booth at the entrance to Magee Marsh during BWIAB. I loved the camera and lens, though at my age, not sure I want to carry it around all day! As you may have noticed, the series of photos of my trip to Washington D.C. has finished, as now I will likely be featuring photos of the birds I photographed at the Magee Marsh boardwalk, etc. The Red-breasted Nuthatch was a lifer for me, meaning in Birdwatcher language, the first time you saw it in your life!

After several days of trying to capture a photo of a Carolina Wren, I was successful! We were walking on the Rails to Trails trail near Millersburg, Ohio.


As well as a sparrow!

As we walked on the walking trail, this white-tailed deer decided she wasn’t in any danger!

Obviously the condition of the roads in the Spring prompted this sign! Probably amusing, unless you are the Superintendent of Highways!

Seen on the Holmes County, Rails to Trails-Trail, near Millersburg!
