We (my wife, who's a much better bird spotter than me, and I) finally found some cooperative red-backed fairy-wrens, down at the bushy end of our road. These are tiny birds, even for fairy-wrens, at 4 - 5 inches. Here is the male in his attractive breeding costume ...
and the female.

Both of these shots are beauties, Pippan! They are sharp and very nicely separated from the background.

Striking shot, Rob...quite attractive!

Thanks so much LD, it helps that they are such striking birds.


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.
