lonestranger 1,145 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 By shortening the time frame, I think you'd be short changing those people that might not have a photo of a particular bird and could otherwise use the whole week to try to get a photo of the desired bird, or get a better photo if they already have one. Just my thoughts. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, his expression pretty well tells what he thinks of being chased for a photo. They must think of us about what movie stars think of the paparazzi!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jefferson Shank 2,674 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Yea, I guess once a week is better. That'll give us more time to get better shots of the bird that is 'up for photos.' 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lonestranger 1,145 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 It's been a while since I've I gotten a shot of Pine Siskins, and even longer since I've gotten a good shot. This one goes back to 2009. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jefferson Shank 2,674 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Pretty rare here, so I don't have any better than this... 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aaron 810 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 They’re far too common at my cabin that I really should have a more interesting shot than this. Guess I’ll have to get some more this year! 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
