I find the camera in my cell phone works best when I'm getting closeups of flowers.

Your bird photos have reached new heights this time around. The fluffy little pudgy robin is too cute! I am glad autumn is near. I love the new crispness in the air.

I really enjoy your bird photos. I like bluejays but I read somewhere they are bullies to other birds.

Nice walks and wonderful birds -- you always catch their personalities (I don't think the blue jay liked having his picture taken ;>)... I'll have to try taking flower pix with my phone -- I never thought of that.
