American Kestrel - My daughter and I were fortunate to have this little guy land pretty close to us along the path.

Have you guys seen this new lens?  It's a wide angle 4.5:1 macro.  Looks pretty interesting.  Manual focus and what not, running $200.  I am considering getting one for my Sony, but it comes in multiple mounts.

My mom picked up an Olympus EP1, for $20, at a garage sale.  She didn't need it, as she has a D3200, but she asked if anyone I knew wanted it.  I told her my daughter would love it.  So here's a sample of pictures through the eye of a newly 6 year old girl("Let's take pictures of habitats!").

Posting a few with the new Tamron 24-70 VC.  She likes to put this costume on from time to time.  It was her little brother's but she loves it more.
