Hello from the cold north!

Hello Pinoy birders,

Thanks for letting me in. I'm a new birder still learning and researching. My rig is non-pro still but a decent one for taking photos of family occassions and travel destinations. I'm a newbie in photography so, I'm still learning the basics on setting the camera to capture a nice bird photo.

I just wish I could upgrade soon to get better close-up pictures.

I'm lucky to be living in Toronto where I don't need to travel far to take wild bird shots because there are several spots in the city where different birds pass and stop by for their twice a year migration route.

I hope to learn from you guys (and gals) and would like to share some shots I took. I welcome critique of my hardware and photos.

Mabuhay ang Pinoy!

Manuel

Welcome to the forum Manuel. Yes, you are indeed lucky to be living in a place where there are lots of beautiful birds. We have a few members who live in Canada but don't really know the exact place but I do hope you get to meet them soon if they are near your area :-)
