[EBB Sightings] Lafayette Reservoir Nesting Boxes

For someone who doesnt know what he's seeing ;) you take awesome pictures!  In this case, aweome pictures of an Ash-throated Flycatcher.  I'm absolutely green with envy - I'm happy if my pictures are even identifiable.  What camera and lenses do you use?

keep up the great work!

cheers,

Jaan
