happy new year

well this is the year that ive got so much going on and want to photograph
i can hardly wait for some time . but for now these are some of the images that ive just finished .

all taken on the 40d +600mm scope hope you all enjoy these and have a happy new year.

ps watch out for the elephant tit

this little egret has been about for 3 years and it has taken me that long to get a shot like this . a rare bird for these parts of the uk

Great shots. That poor Great Tit needs a beak trim.

thanks mitch .

i was feeling a little bit sorry and actualy shocked but when watching him/her feed it was,nt all that bad. (blue tit)

cheers mate

Lovely shots Jason. Kudos to you for getting the little egret, they are indeed very rare to spot over here and finally managing to get a great shot must have been a thrill. Poor little blue tit. I saw a blackbird today with a strange swollen beak but he seemed to be feeding OK too - I expect they're quite adaptable. Thanks for showing these. And happy new year to you too

Nice Captures I especially like the Blue Tit nice comp. and sharpness.

Nice shots, Jason. Poor blue tit though

thanks sheryl the egret uses two over flow outlets from the main river waveny and in one spot the water bottoms out to about 1ft deep . i have sen the bird in this part driving parst and on this acation i had one chance to get out of the car set up and walk in very slowly manual focusing the scope was pretty quick . the shot after this one is when the bird was flying off.

thanks rick and anke appreciate the comments

many thanks
