Spring. Day 2

       It should be Spring, day 2, but it is real winter out there. I guess the snow storm, that weather people were predicting all winter, finally reached Toronto. Great. Better late than never. It was my day off and there was absolutely no sense to waste it. So I dressed up my new camera into a plastic bag with two elastic bands around - useful tip of Mr. Scott Kelby, put on two sweaters and two pairs of gloves (the top one without two fingers to be able to use rings and buttons), and left" to face the unknown". I had no plan, hoping that it will all work out by itself. Soon  the world disappeared - there was no coming elections in Canada, no " fight for Libya", no WOAC, nothing. I guess that's what I like about photography. Only things you see in a vewfinder, resolution, light.... and happiness that you can catch, or see, or even create the moment.

This is an American  Robin. They say one can be sure that Spring is here for real only when the Robin comes home. By the way, they arrive in three groups. First  - male, later female and the last come youngsters, a year old birds. It looks like I was chasing males - they are big and bright.

I wish I had 300mm lens.... Yes, a very expensive hobby....
Tis guy was chasing birds too...
