This is a bit grainy. I had to shoot through my kitchen window which is rarely ever clean!

So you do that too! Most of my bird and squirrel shots are through the kitchen window.

@john4jack: I have been known to sit out on the deck for a VERY LONG time waiting for a bird to return! It took forever to get a hummingbird shot that I'd been trying for for well over a week.

Philip from Joburg, South Africa

He is looking where have his friends gone !

@Philip: Nah, he probably told them to go away, so he could have all the food for himself.

MontereyJohn from Salinas, California, United States

Great title! Fun image.

With regard to the noise (grain), if you are using Photoshop, I have a wonderful add-on called Dfine. It is really simple to use, doesn't cost an arm and a leg, and gets the job done 95% of the time.

@MontereyJohn: Thanks, John. And thanks for the Photoshop info. I'll have to look in that add-on.

@Michael Rawluk: I've been hearing a lot of birdsong this week. I think the birds might be on to something.
