Sedge Warbler
1D2n, 600mm f4 is x1.4, 1/400s, f7.1, iso 200

Frustrating little buggers! I've spent 4 or 5 long sessions being given the run around and only have a couple of shots I'm reasonably happy with.

That would do for me Ian!
Birds with "gobs" open just don't come near me.
Cheers

One of my targets for this year, I would be more than happy to get a shot like this.

You only need a couple if they are this good... nice one and I like the comp, possibly remove the stray reeds on the left hand side, but that depends on how you feel about manipulation and is very minor....

Like David I should be pleased to actually manage a shot of one. Very nice.

Excellent image, I'd be well cuffed with this one.
