Shaver Lake Coot
This was taken at Shaver Lake in the Sierras. I was kind of surprised to see this little guy here as cold as it was. It had snowed the previous night and it was still pretty cold.
I just acquired a Canon PowerShot camera and I'm impressed with what it can do for a point and shoot. This was taken at a full 65X zoom and was hand held. The grebe was at least 300 feet away from me when I took the picture. The reach of the camera is pretty impressive. You really need a tripod when you shoot this way though because the camera is almost impossible to keep steady with the zoom all the way out. The light weight of the camera will be nice to take on my fishing trips.
