Camera practice at CMO

Trying to learn to use my new (to me) camera. Right off the bat I missed getting a good shot of a cardinal because I couldn't seem to focus. Got 3 blurry shots that I won't even post here. After that I got some decent shots of ordinary winter or year-round birds. I love the Pyrrhuloxia males in their bright spring plumage. A photo can't do it justice.

The Green-tailed Towhees that winter here are special to me. Glad they'll still be around until some time in May.

It's hard to believe Lucifers will be back in 2-3 weeks! Still no woodpecker activity on the new agave stalk, but there will be.
