Re: 1st K-3 Shots

2014-05-24 Thread Christine Aguila
Thanks, Mark!  Still getting to know the camera. Did focus testing today.  Not 
too much adjustment needed--a bit of back focusing on the DA* 50-135mm, but 
adjustment seems to have fixed it. 

Cheers, Christine

Re: Fwd: Re: Injured Bird to identify

2014-05-24 Thread John

There's not.

There's an animal control office in the Police Dept that will come and
remove wildlife (including stray dogs & cats) that threaten you, your
kids or your property.

There's an emergency (after hours) vet clinic that can put you in touch
with authorized rehabilitators for hawks & owls.

But nothing for ordinary birds & other small urban wildlife.

It doesn't look like any of the blackbirds I found on Cornell's site.
It's not glossy or iridescent like the Grackles & it has no distinctive
markings.

It's dark grey all over except for the face which appears slightly darker.

The legs and feet are dark grey or dark brown and it has brown/black
eyes. The one leg was broken completely off, held in place only by some
strands of skin or something.

It didn't make it through the night, but it doesn't look like the
neighborhood cats got it. I think the wound to its leg was bad enough it
succumbed to it.

I found it this morning when I was taking breakfast scraps out to the
compost bin.

PS: I apologize if this is a duplicate post. It's the message I was
trying to reply to when I found out Roadrunner was EFFED-UP.


From: David Mann 


I don't know what kind of bird it is but is there an animal shelter near
you that could take it in?

Cheers,
Dave

Its wings appear to be Ok, but I think it couldn't get into the air
because its legs are injured. One of them looked like it was almost
broken off at the joint.

Anyone know what kind of bird it is?

https://www.flickr.com/photos/jb_sessoms/14251740042

I think it's a young bird whatever it is.

I tried to put it up in some shrubbery where I thought it might have a
chance if it lives long enough for the leg to heal. But I expect one of
the neighborhood cats is probably going to get it.

Re: Injured Bird to identify

2014-05-24 Thread John Sessoms

Not really.

Injured pets, some injured wildlife, and especially injured raptors ...
there are resources I could call on.

But for something like "regular" birds, no.

It didn't make it through the night. I found it in the yard this morning
when I took my breakfast scraps out to my compost bin. I don't know if a
cat got it (it's not torn up) or if it just expired from its injuries.

One thing that's giving me trouble identifying it is it doesn't appear
to have the glossy feathers most of the blackbirds are described as having.

It's a fairly uniform dark grey. I'd even call it black, except that the
head *is* black & there's enough difference you can really see the rest
of it is not quite black. It has a dark eye (black or dark brown) and
the undercarriage is dark brown or black.

PS: I hope this makes it through. Roadrunner is EFFED-UP again and
Yahoo is trying to send this as HTML.

Well, randonneuring is a word I had to look up--it seems that you're
another pix-and-bikes PDMLer.  Welcome back; and I hope we get to see
more of your excellent photos sometime!
