Fantastic flight shot of the Olive-backed sunbird, RAL! Cool looking pose.


Wonderful flight shot of the Least Bittern, Paul!

Thanks for your kind comments!

I had my first chance to try for hummingbirds yesterday. Despite being overcast and glum weather this female ruby throated hb managed to bring my spirits up

They came out out excellent!

Two superb Common Swift flight shots, Sid! Definitely not easy targets to photograph.
