Red Headed Woodpecker late fall treat

In recent years the Red Headed Woodpecker status has declined as do to habitat loss , so it is always a treat when I come across one of these beauty's!

I Digiscoped these adults in there favorite wintering habitat, and I was surprised at 60 to 80 feet the Quality was decent also I found an abundance of Sparrows including this American Tree Sparrow.

Dunlin

Just sifting through some Photoshop file and found a decent keeper from the Jetty.

Another White Throat

I found some more captures from  last Sunday that worth salvaging, now that the weather is terrible today I will be editing and trying to force my way out to go Xmas shopping hopefully the pain is not to bad .

Halifax road

A gem of a Sparrow location in Northern Bergen county, yes I'm talking about Halifax Road it is located at the foothills of the Ramapo Mountains with lots of great habitat for Sparrows and some Waterfowl ,so far I just got some White Throats to corporate, but I did manage to spy out an American Tree Sparrow which was a bit spooky , I think when the Snow comes this spot will shine for Photography!

P6000's RAW

I took this Turnstone capture with the Nikon P6000's Raw format it is hard with just 1 frame at a time , and the subject has to almost perfectly still.

TSN-17W test

I tested the TSN-17W along with the TSN-25LER eyepiece on a plush toy I edited,. the 17W today .Tommorow I will explain the pros and cons of each eyepiece.

Barnegat Light Piper's galore

Barnagat Light conditions were nice , moderate sunlight and plenty of Dunlins,Purple Sandpipers and Ruddy Turnstone.

One surprise though was no Harlequins!

But on the bad lighting side of the jetty was a nice amount of Common Eiders, Scoters ,and one King Eider mixed in .
