Again - nice, For me my favourite is pic 3 of the wren. Shame it was not facing toward rather than away - but as you say they are notthe easiest to choreograph!

Obelix

Very nice - I like the sharp body with the blurr of the wings to show the movement. Good looking bird too, but then most of the birds of prey are, something about them which lends them to this sort of photograph.

Great clarity of texture and definition. Really like the colour in the wing you have captured to give almost 3-D effect.

Jay


Blackcap - pretty song but a difficult little devil to catch.

@ eccles - great shots all. I really need to figure out how I can afford one of those 70-400 G's

Really like the Wren and Blackcap. Jay looks very nice but I know how difficult it is to get the other two, particularly the Blackcap.
Very good - do you handhold or use support? Personally I find handholding the 70-400 for any time difficult.


You must be having some better weather than we are at moment!

Obelix

Very good pics of a lovely bird - very good definition and clarity.

Atto

Love them - particularly the first one. I like the way the sparrow is held in the pose and yet you can see the blurr of the moving wing AND tail to show the importance of both in the flying skils he has - very good.   I think in the senod pic the bird in the foreground imposes too much on the bird which should be the real subject.

Spotted Towhee - these birds are usually scratching the ground in thick brush. This one was busy calling.
