One from this morning,, i seem to be getting to grip with my D300 now.
we stuck the coaltit ,err sorry i mean moss to the top of the log with peanut butter, seemed to work well in attracting the birds to the right spot.

Thats one way of sticking moss to a perch, must remember that one
Well planned & taken, just a shame the whites on the cheek are a bit blown.
Looks like you are going to have great fun with the D300
Very nice! Thanks for the tip too. I'd be tempted to crop some of the negative space from the top and perhaps darken the bird just a little.

Haven't succeeded in getting one of these as yet but think they're really attractive birds. Might crop a bit off too and maybe selectively darken the cheek but otherwise great as is. And I thought peanut butter was only good for foxes
