Title: Bluebirds
Post by: MEGHAN on May 08, 2013, 03:54:55 PM

Spent the morning chasing Bluebirds.
Thanks to a very special person who pointed me in the right direction to find these beautiful and co-operative birds.

Very nice pictures, I love the colour of the blue birds, still waiting to get a good shot of an Indigo Bunting.  Many years now since I have seen one.

They are at Marie Curtis Park in Etobicoke. On the West side behind the armory.

Thanks. Taken with a 500mm.
A 600mm is a bit too much for me...that's money and weight  :shock:

I think you ask if it's willing to take your suitcase over the border in exchange for $100 and no questions asked. =P
