Hope these pics appeal to Mandrake more than the last ones lol!
I personally think these little creatures are quite nice looking.
First two were taken @ 300mm and the butterfly @ 35mm

Nikonguy,
I love the second photo (bird). It’s sharp (clear in focus).. The composition is right on point and the blurred background is perfect.

Love, Monkey

Beautiful photos, dale. Something we now expect.
Do you know the bird species?

Thanks for the comments guys.
Mandrake – The top picture is of a Cedar Waxwing. Primary breeding grounds are Southern Canada
and Northern USA. Middle picture is of (I believe) a species of Chickadee that is quite common in the
Pacific Northwest.
The Waxwing was a lucky shot. It landed, I raised the camera and fired off a shot and it was gone.
Thank God for fast autofocus on the lens or I would have missed it.

Silky
D5200 vs D7000? Hello! The D7000 is a no brainer when it comes to DX Nikon!!!
I would rather save money and get the D5100 body only rather than the D5200.
Check out the price of the D7000 now – I paid about $1200 2 years ago for body only and
added the optional 35mm prime at another $275 plus 12% taxes added. Do the math!
Look up Ken Rockwell and read his reviews on Nikon D7000 – I think you will forget the D5200!
