Steph\'s Nature Pics

Thanks to the advice and recomendations we recieved here, Steph has bought a Cannon S2 digital camera. It's loaded with features including a 12X optical zoom with image stabalizer!!!

After looking around, she bought it from www.beachcamera.com with a 1 gig memory stick for around $375 total. There were a few places that were about ten dollars cheaper, but they didn't have the reputation of Beach, so for peace of mind, she paid a little extra.

The reason for this purchase is her new found passion for birds, wildlife and nature in general. If it's outdoors, she's interested in it!!! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I'm gonna post some of the pics she's taken with it from time to time and sort of keep this an ongoing thread. Our ultimate goal is to be able to document what we have on our land on a yearly basis. What is here this month, might not be here in a few months, and who knows what will be here then.

This first picture is of us.

Indigo Bunting.

I've had the land for a few years now, but never noticed this bird before. Steph was watching the birds with the binoculars and discovered that we had these here!!!

Cotton Tail

He's become a regular in our yard. Early evening and first thing in the morning. The kids get a big thrill out of seeing him as they leave for school.

Frog

We stocked our small pond with fish about a month ago, and the tadpoles were very aggressive on the fish food. They are gone now, and this guy is there instead. He's way too big to have been a tadpole this year!!!
