Red-breasted Nuthatch: Kennebunk, Maine, USA, April 2023 — I put out the blind and filled the feeders under the pines yesterday, but the birds have not found the seed yet. I did manage to get my first shot with the new Olympus OM-1 and the 400mm zoom that was not taken through a sheet of double pane glass 🙂 by opening the deck door for a half hour or so late in the day yesterday. I am happy to have it be the Red-breasted Nuthatch, one of my favorite feeder birds. The light was okay…full daylight but no sun so this is also my first shot in “normal ISO” range…normal for the OM-1 and the f6.3 lens. I am happy with the new rig so far. Still tweaking the settings for Point and Shoot nature photography, but I can already tell that I am going to like it. I will try to keep it about the birds and the wildlife and the flowers and landscapes…the wonders of creation! That is my promise to myself. And the Red-breasted Nuthatch is a good place to start. Olympus OM-1 with 100-400mm zoom at 800mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Pixelmator Pro and Apple Photos. ISO 1000 @ f6.3 @ 1/640th.
