Nice angle, exposure, colors and details in what must have been a tough shoot as i don't imagine these birds come out in the open too much.

Good capture, ours are not singing much at the moment, weathers to cold.

Thank you very much for the kind comments.
They do move around quickly and, as Gary said, do not come out into the open too much.

Both lovely shots. The detail in #1 is great, and i love the pose in #2.

I'm assuming noise reduction has reduced the detail in the 2nd, and was wondering if anyone knows a way around this, as it happens to me all the time. :( I use Noise Ninja, but my knowledge is very limited (i just click 'okay' and voila!).

Thanx for the kind comments Pete, Mitch and Scott.
The bird was going ballistic in the second shot and it is probably my fault re : lack of detail.
