Canon EOS 1D MKII, 600mm non IS f4, 1.4 conv, @f6.3, 1/320, ISO 400, RAW, RSE, CS2, Bean Bag.

Hi All,

I got a message from a friend that there were at least fifteen Wheatear's on a field on my local Industrial Estate yesterday, being at work I could'nt get up to have a look, but at 5.30pm went there in a rain shower, searched the field with the lens and was gobsmacked at how many there were, I counted at least 50, so started snapping away, pleased I did because there's only been around eight on there all day today.

All comments welcome

Regards

Rob

Pleasing image of a nice looking bird, looks like there wasn't much light about. Very nice catch.

Cheers Wayne :D

Please explain what this bird is and the significance it has. Just an ignorant yank.
