D7000 300mm f4 ISO 320 1/160s at f8 tripod.

Taken at garden feeding station the other day. The Dunnock is one of my favourite birds as I love their secretive habits and plumage which is not as bland as you think at first glance. I like the head turn on this one which has shown off the detail to its breast and head to good effect. Please view large to appreciate the plumage.

Many thanks for the comments on my Robbie post.

A lovely shot of an under rated species. If you have more canvas available I would suggest a bit more room on the right and a bit less on the left.
