Slow Week

This week had not been the most successful photography week. With the fall migration starting, I've tried to switch back to bird photography - tried being the key word. I have not had much luck getting portfolio quality bird photos this week. So, I took a break and decided to do macro photography yesterday. Still not a great day, but better. Here are a couple yellow-jackets from Woodman Fen enjoying the goldenrod.
