gotcha!

0815gotchasmI finally got a photo of the birds!! And it only took a month! I'm a professional, really, I am! And of all the birds, it's only a sparrow...But guys, I like *all* the birds. Have you ever noticed that the male sparrows have different feathers on the tops of their heads? It looks shaved or like a mohawk! You can barely see it here. I love watching the birds in the morning out the kitchen window. And yes, thus begins my slow descent into senior citizenship.I really wanted to capture this little black and grey guy so I could ask you, the Internet, what kind of bird he is, but man is he... flighty (ha). He is so afraid of me, that the only photos I've gotten are a blur as he flies away. But what I really want to show you is the yellow finch. I got that guy on my iPhone the other day, but I'mma get him for real pretty soon...For my Internet share of the day, I'm gonna send you to this rad photographer in NYC who is also a cab driver and shoots from his cab with a point-and-shoot. His stuff is AMAZING. Watch the video about him here.
