Most excellent group of captures Stu!
I love the Tit and the Nuthatch shots (so cute), but that Stellers looks to be a massive bird. Look forward to seeing some more.....

Great set. I am amazed at the differences and the similarities in the species as you move around the world. Thanks for sharing.
