(12,534 posts)I was worried we put the feeders out too late. They found it and started showing up late last week.

(43,596 posts)Until about 8 May, so yours were probably timed about right.. I was very glad to see them and it does look like theres a nest nearby. I just hope theyre successful.

(18,592 posts)A flash can freeze motion too. If it's bright enough you can set your shutter speed and ISO for quality and still freeze them. 1/250, ISO 100

(10,480 posts)why in the world would someone use a flash on a bright day. I've learned to appreciate fill flash, but I'd no idea about freezing motion this way. Thanks!

(43,596 posts)Theres at least one male and one female that come here all the time. I think there is a nest nearby. I hope the Blue Jays havent raided it. They were definitely late showing up this year and not nearly as many they usually peak out at about July, when the babies are fledging
