Birds in Nature - images of wild birds by Richard Ditch |
Subject: Gambel's Quail (Callipepla
gambelii)
Place: Phoenix, AZ, USA
Date: April 2004
Equipment: Nikon N90S, Nikkor AF-S 300/2.8 & TC20E (= 600/5.6),
tripod
Film: Fuji Sensia 100
Exposure: Aperture priority matrix meter
Scan: Minolta Dimage, 80% of frame
Commentary: Another backyard shot, taken from inside through
the glass of the patio door. These birds are abundant in suburban
settings here, and we've had up to 15 in our yard at a time. These
birds are getting very comfortable in the yard this year and we
expect them to breed soon.
