Taking photos of wildlife
This completely defeated me, as the attached photo of two blue macaws shows. I discovered that although my rather simple digital camera has a zoom it is not up to capturing moving animals. I followed these two blue macaws until they settled in the tree and even then they were so high up that it was impossible to get a good photo of them with my camera.

I also had this problem with many other species of birds and animals which although I was able to see at close range, I was not able to photograph, but the following website has a wonderful image of blue macaws in flight, which is just what we saw every day.
