Every once in a while...

... we actually make a blog post. At least as of late. And every once in a long while, we post something besides people pics. This is one of those times. In honor of the oh-so-strange 90 degree April 1 weather, we probably ought to be posting pictures of a swimming pool or kids playing in the water of a fire hydrant.

But no. We're sticking to spring. Found this bird in some 10-foot bushes on the St. Charles Community College campus. Just chilling. Acting as though it were spring; that is, acting as though it felt like spring. Shot w/ a 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 lens, the most important thing was to get in as tight as possible so that the bird's eye is in focus. Miss the eyes, and you miss the shot.
