  Nice shot Charlie!! 
  

  
  Thanks Nick. He was about 4 feet away. I was sitting in my Rocker on my porch. He was drying his feathers in the sun after a rain storm. I just happened to have my Cannon on the table. 🤠

  A Texas Roadrunner visited me on the porch at my Ranch.
  

  
  Very nice shot Charlie especially with backlit conditions.

  Thanks Nick, I do enjoy bird photography.
  
  Post up the photos of your Goldfinches, I'd love to see them.
  

  
  Here ya go Jim, I've decided I either need a stronger lens or quieter kids

  Thanks Jim, didn't know that it had a name, but I like the effect. All I did was set my lens to manual focus and focused on the bird, the camera did the rest

• Bokeh is something that 'togs really strive for Nick as it accentuates the focus on the main subject.

  I like it for the same reason, and good to know that I am doing something right
