testing out my new 200-600mm Lens

in my Once in a blue moon post I shared a shot of the new lens I have and I set it up in the backyard and tried a few test shots that I will share in this post

Starting with this shot of the ornament at the bottom of one of the Windchimes we have in our garden

And another one of the decorations we have in our garden, this time with a shorter exposure to show the leaves on it rotating in the background

This ornament we picked dup in Milford not long before we packed and moved here to New Bedford, and this shot I took a faster exposure to show the detail of it, I think its pretty cool and we enjoy watching it in the garden.

Now one of the reasons I wanted the new 200-600 Lens was to get shots of birds, so I had to do a test shot of some birds, all be it not the type of birds I am planning to get shots of, but good enough for this post.

This is one of three bird feeders we bought and the next shot will explain why we bought three

These little characters although fun to watch are a real pain, they literally destroyed the first two feeders, literally pulling them apart, , so I got this third one which supposedly was squirrel proof, well maybe for some squirrels but not the ones we have here, they have ripped open the top of the feeder and bent some of the cage so they can get in and get the bird feed as this one is here.But I haven't given up on feeders completely, we do have tw humming bird feeders in the garden, and have at least one hummingbirds visiting and that will, however, be a future post ;)
