It has been a while since my last post. Winter is almost gone and there are welcome signs of spring everywhere. The longer days, warmer sun and birdsong in the mornings have brought me out of doors quite a bit more in the past few weeks.
This coming season, one of my goals is to improve my photography skills. I was lucky enough to receive a new Canon digital SLR camera along with a telephoto lens for Christmas. The new camera has definitely given me the tools to improve my photography, now I just need more practice! Here are a few from over the past few months. I am looking forward to a wonderful spring and summer full of hiking and birding and picture taking!
