Hi all!

Another from my garden bird project. The birds are really liking the position of the feeder, but I keep running out of food for them...

Techs:
D200, 500mm lens
1/320 @ F8 - 200ISO

C and C welcome!

Never an easy bird to comp these with such a long tail. This works nicely though, great BG and nice catch light.

Lovely card shot this Dawn. Nice and sharp around the head and as mentioned the all important catchlight.

Very nice shot! The foliage makes a big difference. I got two frames of one tonight, but no good. I wonder if you would get away wtih brightening it just a little?

Hello Dawn.

Nice capture and pose, with nice light on the bird and a the darker background realy helps.
