Dartford Warbler. Poor light hence ISO5000 and 1/500 but it was close as this is full frame at 600mm

That's a beauty...wonderful composition, sharpness, and great background. The yellow flowers really add a lot to the overall impression of the photo.

Lucky you! The closest I have managed was this Dartford fledgling a few years ago. It, and its 3 siblings, were jumping around in the gorse, waiting for Dad to bring them food, and I just managed to find a gap in the branches for this shot.

Fantastic shot. I especially love the composition, not to mention the excellent sharpness!

Three very nicely done shots. Too bad you couldn't have gotten in a little closer on that last eagle shot. ;-)a :lol:

Very nice. What a cool looking bird. That huge bill must be heavy for him to carry around all day. ;-)a

Beautiful light and capture. Great work getting the clean background isolation, when I see then they inevitably are in clutter!
