Some stunners in there - I particularly like the Nuthatch and the Blue Tit hanging head downwards on the catkins.

Wonderful lot. The pigeon looks like he's thinking "hurry up and get on with it!"
Not only are the subjects nicely taken they're all well exposed and lovely and sharp. Well done.

The first one seems to be just slightly - just slightly, mind you - over processed to me, but the rest are delightful.
I've been trying to photograph birds a little since getting the Bigma, but without much result, other than to educate me in how hard it is to get them sharp, natural, and well-exposed all at once.
Which these very much are.

OK this is not going to go down well.
Very beautiful shots of birds ...... as opposed to beautiful shots in themselves ... until we get to my favourite (#9) and despite myself the stunning Nuthatch shot. Why do I say that ? Like taking pictures at the zoo for me the best bird shots are those that have no man-made object in the frame.

Mostly taken with K20D, some with K10D, lenses were 55-300mm (until today I'm still impressed by this lens - in its class) and 60-250mm.
All taken handheld (sometimes elbow supported on something if it was possible, no mono/tri-pods were used).
If you click on the photo it will open with a bit better quality and sharpness - forum thingy.
