Young Blue Tit being fed by Mum (orDad)

350D, Sigma 170-500 1/60 @ f.11 iso 800 , Very cloudy here in London

Lovely shots, it is no wonder the babies are bigger than their poor hassled parents. Very sharp.

Larlen, i really admire your skill. When shooting birds in cloudy condition or overcast day, I could hardly shoot at above f8, or slower than 1/125 but not only u used smaller aperture + slower speed, you were still able to avoid subject blur, and achieved the crisp and sharpness that make my jaw drops. I know u mentioned u used tripod but still...... mind sharing your secret? ;)

Great captures!!!
