Subject: [Leica] Bluebirds in my yard

I used the nest of an Oak Titmouse to compare E100G with Sensia and K64 but
in the middle of my testing a pair of Western Bluebirds appeared in my
viewfinder, scouting for suitable nest cavities:

Tech stuff: Leicaflex SL, 560mm f/5.6 Telyt, 14198 extension tube, tripod,
Sensia 100.  I haven't scanned the Oak Titmouse photos yet.  BTW my
comparison of these films suggests that E100G is good stuff: excellent grain
and color, none of the muddy shadows of Sensia.  I wish it didn't cost so
much.
