Around the House | Mourning Dove Close Portrait   Mourning Doves make such good bird subjects. They are fairly calm for a bird and the don’t dart around much.  They give you plenty of time to capture a nice image.     Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.

Around the House | Bluejay   This Bluejay is a bit shaded. The Bluejays around here are very skittish.  They just don’t stay perched on a branch for long and with the slightest motion or sound, they are gone.  This image is one of the closest I’ve been able to capture.  For more information and images of Bluejays, see Blue Jays | a 7 Image Story.  For more information and images on using the Nikon 1 V3 for bird photography, see Nikon 1 V3 for Birds | a 7 Image Story.   Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
