<p>Happy Thursday everyone! I haven't shot much this week, but I plan on waking up at 5am to drive to a birding hotspot. Spring has arrived early in Indiana; we hit 82 deg. F today, a new record. Hopefully this warm weather will encourage more photos. Here's one I shot the other day of a Downy Woodpecker in our yard.</p><div>00a8tw-450353584.jpg.db2dfd354b66410e3d08ac3d0a1134f4.jpg</div>

<p>Just back from a week in Arizona, sorting through a lot of shots from the Tucson and Sedona areas. I had the chance to get a 500mm lens for the week, and that was kind of fun. What a monster, but there were some opportunities to use it. Here's a shot of an early hummingbird (it's been warmer than usual in southern Arizona as well) - not a perfect shot but it was fun to have the opportunity.</p><div>00a8u2-450355584.jpg.3ba3f5e4adbd72853d8e82ef967b45ec.jpg</div>

<p>Second hummingbird of the post so far! Last weekend at the local wildlife reserve I got this shot of a Rufous/Allen’s Hummingbird. Beautiful bird. Submitted it to a bird ID forum to try to determine if it was Rufous or Allen’s. General consensus was Rufous, but not conclusive.</p><div>00a8uf-450367584.jpg.dfed4e3e2cb0e2aa753c2137605a2b58.jpg</div>

<p>I belong to a local camera club which is celebrating its 75th anniversary. Last Saturday many of us traveled to an Inn near Lancaster PA where in 1952 the club members met for a photoshoot and then took a group picture. We met at the same Inn, same table, and replicated the photo. It was a lot of fun and the food was great too. Here's a shot of the camera that we used to take the picture.</p><div>00a8wT-450399584.jpg.6f49c16fb2d10f9e9b42c3310108d7f6.jpg</div>

Happy Thursday. We have a vernal pond in the yard. It is a small ecosystem supporting many animals from bugs to birds. These are frog eggs (still sorting out the species). This was the first time in water with my camera on a tripod. It was a bit nerve biting. I'll see if I can photograph their progress.<div>00a8xA-450411584.JPG.160decc77d1c0b4d8d61fb700eae7a8c.JPG</div>
