I took these today, these little guys have come in large amounts for the second batch of fruit that has ripened on my trees. The last shot shows one of them trying out my homemade tasty bird treats.http://www.stevesforums.com/forums/images/emoticons/icon_lol.gif


All shot with Canon 300d and canon 100-300 usm lens. 1/500 F8 ISO 400

Excellent series of shots of a neat looking bird. I too agree the last shot shows the silvereye the best.

Nice shots, they look like they have silver eye shadow on.
