The light was great and I didn't want to miss it. So I wrapped a plastic bag around the DS and gave it a try. Couldn't find my regular rain cover.
Neighbors probably wondered why I was holding a bag to my face in the rain. LOL

Telescope, camera and correct timing.

I use a Tamron 90/2.5 and Tamron 2X often. This photo was shot with that combo.

Hoping to find a good used one at a working man's level of cost.
I know, I'm crazy.

I have names for some of them.
There are probably 50-60 deer in the woods all the time. They never leave as they are protected from hunting there.
Though the biggest buck, 14 points was poached back in October.
The slimeballs were caught.

It won't autofocus. But if the pin is left on, it will get stuck on the 20D.

They are ex-racers. I used to do fostering and retraining for several adoption agencies. I ended up adopting 6. Now I am down to 4.

I am known as a dog whisper. Deer too. LOL

Remove the pin first. Otherwise it will get caught in the AF hole. It is then a matter of nerve to twist back off. Here is the pin that needs to be removed. I just use a dremel.

Excellent shot of the robin. I like the framed waterfall too.
