Mum !- I can see sumpfink !!
Spelling mistake on purpose-supposed to be Orville !
:biggrin:
Young little owl. Probably one of its first views of the big wide world.A black round thing sticking out of a tent. I reckon a family of magpies saw this one off in the end. Everything has gone from the site so thats my owl project finished for this year.
Inside open fronted barn
800 ISO
D7100 Sigma 150 macro 2.8
50th sec @ f8
Crop from landscape.
Thanks for lack of comments on Garden Warbler.
Took it off after 140 views and no comments- must have been rubbish

Love how cramped it is, great shot John.

This is probably my last post on here, forum has gone from bad to worse and the whole size limitation on shots has bugged me for a while. Not being allowed to post nature oriented news is the last straw, yes there are other sections but it is here that we all live!

If anyone wants me I am on facebook (neil immortal), blog (natureimmortal.blogspot.com) or email below. :wavey:

John I like this a lot. I have lowl shots a plenty but nothing like this :wink:

A shame about Neil :frown: Its hard enough to get comments on here as it is without one of the regulars leaving for keeping informed about the world.

Bob :smile:

Stunning LOWL shot JR, that one should sell pretty well I would think. :wink: The texture of the brickwork resolved with the D7100 is superb!
