So, I tried my hand at photographing small migratory birds today. I wasn’t very successful. It is a completely different beast than photographing larger birds. The small birds flit around constantly. By the time I would locate the bird being pointed out to me, it would have moved on. Looking at the photos on the back of my camera, I was certain I’d captured some of them. However, once I pulled them off the camera, most of them are grainy. I was going from bright light to low light and should have changed the ISO, but failed to do so in the moment. Maybe I’ll get another chance before they are gone.
This first one is a Red-eyed Vireo. These photos were a little less grainy.
