This job is on my no thank you list.

I wonder what it was like during the buildings hay-day.

Today when we looked out our 2nd floor window, someone was staring back.  With better eyesight too.

I ran to my office to grab my camera.  I put on my 200mm 2.8 lens and shot Raw knowing I might need to make adjustments.   I took a number of shots through the window screen.  I didn’t want to scare our friend away.

After I was happy with a few images I opened the screen to get a clearer shot and maybe a little closer.  The bird immediately spread its wings and flew away.  I tried to capture the flight, but all I got was an out of focus wing or two.

No award winner today. I have a feeling this image will be the extent of my animal nature photography in Detroit this winter.
