Lol, I actually got a letter from the HOA regarding my weekend activties and the increase number of dead birds near my house. They "claim" they saw me sitting out back with the bb rife. I asked them to produce pictures but they got nothing on me.

[cichlid1409]

[soymilk]

Just don't do it in the street....

[myjohnson]

Can I come?

I'm bring my BB gun.

I'm eat those birds after y'all take they picture.

I liked this lens better than the comparable canon lens. It has a 1:2 macro setting and a better zoom compared to 250mm on the canon. after reading a couple comprehensive reviews it looked like it could get the job done. Tamron has some good comparable lenses to canon but cheaper (havn't compared them to nikon since I don't have one). I was planning on getting some good bird shots, corpus is the birdiest city in the nation.

I was actually thinking about heading down to corpus this summer. Doing some birding and maybe hit up the aquarium they got there. I've actually heard a ton of people going down there to go birding. There are some people that do it in or around galveston.

Sweet!

Birds are bad@$$. I don't keep them but they are a cool subject to shoot.

I think tamron vs. nikkor is the same as tamron vs. canon.

Tamron makes very nice lens for the price. It basically does everything the "name brand" lens do but cheaper.

I just like name brands b/c I think they hold value better over time.

Post up some pictures of the birds when you take them.

On the subject of birds, I been seeing a bunch of dead ones downtown when I walk to work. Kind of freaky honestly.

Maybe I'll take some macro shots of dead birds and post those!
