Blue Jay

Where: Goode, VA • 1070 Ranchette Drive

Equipment: Canon EOS D20 with 100-400mm Zoom L Series Lens with Image Stabilizer • Hand held

Exposure: Shutter Speed = 1/320 • Aperture = f 5.6 • Exposure Mode = Normal Program • Lens (Focal) Length = 400 mm • ISO = 800 • Aprox. Camera Distance = ~20 Feet • Date Shot: 02-09-06

Notes: I always heard that a small puddle of water is a great addition to any backyard bird feeding area, especially if it makes a little splashing sound. This was proven true time and time again as I have photographed 19 different bird species (plus several mammals) at this same wet spot just in the past two years. I will miss shooting at this water spot in my old backyard in Goode, Virginia but I look forward to the new journey that moving to the Richmond area will bring.
