New Year New Birds

Each year I start my bird count over. In 2014 I photographed 58 birds. I hope to improve that number in 2015. Today we went on our first bird watching walk in 2015 and saw 7 birds!

iPhone 6 Photos

I’ve had my iPhone 6 since Friday and I’ve been taking pictures and video and am pretty impressed with the camera. It’s still only 8 mega pixels but it’s much better internals to make the camera better. Check out these photos taken with the iPhone 6 over the last few days.

New Bird

Bird #57 for the year is the Black-and-white Warbler. We were taking a walk through the Olmsted Woods at the National Cathedral when I saw this bird and was so excited to snap some pictures of it. I was excited because it makes bird #57 for the year which passes my total for last year of 56. Yay!
