One from yesterday.

Still not got them upside down :mad:

Not compressed very well - the wing coverts look a bit blocked at this size but here's a detail 100% crop 'off sensor' so to speak.

D300
Sig 300-800 @ 650mm
1/500th @ f5.6 (wide open for this lens)
ISO 400
Numpty pressing the buttons :biggrin:

PP Bibble Pro + CS3

Thanks for looking :toast: :toast: :toast:

Andy

Very nice image

Re upside down - if you rotate by 90degrees twice you will have your image :biggrin:

Very nice Andy

I have a Nuthatch that comes into my garden daily,
he is that confident I can practicaly touch him, not that I would of course, especially as the beak looks very sharp

Looks like you have had some harsh side light.
Well done!

Hello Andy.

Nice image of a lovely bird. I've just started to get one on my feeding station in the back garden, all I need now is a good prop to catch him on. :wavey:
