Birds in Nature - images of wild birds by Richard Ditch |

Subject: Curve-billed Thrasher (Toxostoma
curvirostre)
Place: Phoenix, AZ, USA
Date: March 2002
Equipment: Nikon N90S, Nikkor AF-S 300/2.8 & TC20E (= 600/5.6),
tripod
Film: Fujichrome Sensia 100
Exposure: aperture priority matrix metered, natural light, no fill
flash
Scan: Minolta Dimage, 100% of original frame
Commentary: Taken nine months later than this side
view, it is very likely this is the same bird. This has become my
standard backyard setup, and I've again taken this from inside the
house through the closed glass patio door.The slight color difference
could be the result of the time of day, the light itself, the change
of film, or even the wear of the plumage between March and June.
