Continuing with shots from Pike Place Market (not that you can really tell), I present to you “No Loitering”. What’s a little amusing about this image is the bird below was in perfect alignment with this sign…perhaps he needs to brush up on his reading skills?

Can you believe I managed to get an image of a bird!? For those of you who don’t know, birds and I just DON’T mix at all! Whenever I try to capture a bird they fly off…every stinking time. Ggggrrrrrrrrr….
…Enjoy!

Great bird shot. You are amazing. Thank you dear David, love, nia
Thank you kindly Nia, always appreciated!
That bird has a personality, I love it. Great capture.
I love the colours in the little fella, thanx for the comment Martina!
Nice shots – congrats on the bird. You have some psychic power that repels them.
And you have seen it first hand! 😀 Thank you for the visit and comment Mike.
You did! Although he does look like he’s running away from you 🙂
Yup, I totally agree with you…he IS running away from me! 😀
Finally! A bird! Its been years coming! Congrats 🙂
I know, wooot! Thank you for the comment Morgan, glad to see you still visit!
Great photos. I like the color them. I had the same problems with birds so I ended up bringing them to me and now I use a blind in my backyard to my shots.
Thank you for the visit and for the comment. Unfortunately, my back yard is fenced so a blind just wouldn’t work out that well! 😀 I keep trying and hey, that’s all we can ask for yea?
Are you telling the full story here, about the bird? That’s a starling and they travel in flocks of hundreds. Could it be that by random chance alone you were likely to capture a bird if you set your exposure and focus on automatic, closed your eyes, and took, say, 10 shots?
As I was posting this image, I really did think to myself that you would know the name of this little fella! 😀 The starling was really by himself, I promise and I could probably capture a bird with the 10 shot process as you described, however, I think it would be a rather boring image. 😛 Birds as the primary subject for me…sigh, I try and try…
Well, this one is not a boring image – that purposeful stride looks like a banker on the way to make some serious money, or something.
More like…It’s David, must escape… 😛
Great capture, David!
Hey…thanx Gracie!! 😀
