That one is really a beauty Sidknee. So nice and sharp. You certainly get wonderful images when it's windy and rainy out.

Thanks Mike, I love the quality of that light for the little birds, dark background helps alot and the 19 year old lens is still superb.

Love this. Agree, the weather effects add some reality to the life of those birds.
Beautiful bird

Thanks Richard, :)

Thanks Bill, they don't come by very often so was glad to get a shot of this one.

Beautiful. Bird & photo.
'Common' seems to be given to many beautiful birds. Expect there's a reason, but doesn't sound very complimentary.

Sibil wrote in post #18685416 (external link)

That's a beauty. Smooth, almost fur like on its head. Lovely colours.

DLeeT wrote in post #18685282 (external link)

Beautiful. Amazes me how those birds with long gangly legs can land in such places.
Only by judgement do they know where everything is.
No parking cameras and sensors for them
