Chaffinch coming in to land:
Most of the photos were of birds, mainly sparrows, peacefully feeding but the arrival of Starlings usually livens things up a bit.
Are you my Dad?
Keep moving pal.
Go find your own perch.
Where is Air Traffic Control when you need them?
I wonder how long a camera battery lasts when it needs recharging every day.
These pictures are grand but the first one is stunning.
ReplyDeletesuch beautiful detail on the arrangement of feathers on that starlings wing! The fast film speed shows that detail we would never otherwise see! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteHello Adrian. With automation you never know what will turn up and I was pleased with the Chaffinch and also the Starling with spread wings but the peanut feeder in that is intrusive.
ReplyDeleteHello Matron. It's not often we get a long look at the full colours in birds' wings. I was also taken with the dazzling colours on such a common bird which can look fairly dowdy at rest.
ReplyDeleteHi John, beautiful action captures and lovely, close detail!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jan. I never know what will turn up with automated photography.
ReplyDeleteSome really good action shots John.
ReplyDeleteCracking action shots John. That set up is working a treat.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to see all this action! It is great that you can have such a fast shutter speed to capture the instant. You are outdoing yourself with this latest technological feat!
ReplyDeleteThank you Roy. Never know what will turn up with this method.
ReplyDeleteThank you Keith. It works better than I had hoped. What I would love to do is have the same sort of gadget work a video camera but none of mine have that facility.
ReplyDeleteHello Wilma. Where do I go from here? ;) Back to good old manual photography I guess but the automated process has its place as there is little chance of scaring the birds away.
