Nikon D3100 versus Nikon Coolpix S8000

OK, so this post is not going to be one photo but many.

Today I took my fancy new camera, which I do love the look and feel of, out for it's first run.
We went to my favourite snapping spot...the duck pond.
I also took my trusty old point & shoot...and I'm so glad I did or I would have completely missed the gorgeous egret because I could not have got anywhere near as close (zoom-wise) with the new camera.

I took these with my old Nikon S8000...

I've never seen baby ibises before...so cute!




The babies are growing up way too fast!










I took these with the new Nikon D3100...




This is as close as I could get.








And then in the afternoon I visited a friend who bought the same camera last week (we are camera twins!)
She has gorgeous flowers in her garden so we both did some happy snapping in her garden.

The old camera...



And then the battery died....dammit!

And the new camera...













And that's it.
A lot of photos in one day with two cameras.
What do you think?
All opinions and suggestions are most welcome.
