Bird Gallery

Here is the collection of bird pictures we've taken on our trips and around the Puget Sound. The pictures were captured with a simple non-SLR digital Canon camera. Some were taken through our spotting scope (digiscoping), while others were taken through a special digital camera monocular adaptor.

I don't have a lot of photos yet, but as I gain skill in digascoping and go on more trips, I will continue to fill these pages. As anyone who has tried knows, taking pictures of live birds is difficult! And taking a good picture is an entirely different ballpark!

My best photo so far is here, captured by pure luck.

Also check out the bird videos at the bottom of the page.
