About the Image(s)

For Christmas, one of my daughters gave me a window bird feeder, that was attached to a window with suction cups. Shortly after I put it up, we had a snow storm. During this storm, the bird feeder became very popular. I set up my Olympus camera with a Leica 100-400mm lens on a tripod away from the window (so as not to scare the birds). I took several photos of the birds, but liked this one the best, with the two birds interacting. It was taken at 161mm (322mm for 35mm equivalent), 1/160th second, f8, and ISO 400. I did crop in some and used Topaz Photo AI to sharpen and remove noise. Sadly I had to take it down a few days later as a squirrel found it and was eating all the seeds. Don't worry, the birds still had my backyard feeder with a squirrel guard.
