Stu

Yes - lovely light here, looks like you had a good day

#3 for me - I love the pattern of light on the fields

What make of grads are you using Stu?

# 3, beautiful light

Thanks for suggestion and the kind comments - I have just checked my Collins Gem guide of 'ickle birdie dudies' and it seems that you are correct - the green ones appear to be females Crossbills with the red ones being males

I wishes I had taken a 300mm instead but hey ho

Thanks Tim, I use the Cokin 'a' system the grad(s) in the holder today are by Cokin although I have others and all seem to be much of a muchness to me

you did well i great set Stuey

Thanks Shaun

No 3. Definitely!

What you have locally is quite something, maybe Wales isn't so bad. 3 is a standout.

Nice set Stu. You've captured some gorgeous light and congrats on the crossbills

A very nice set! My favorite is number 3.

Best regards
Bjørn

Thanks guys

Like these Stuey. Are they taken on the moors above Llangollen up the Horseshoe Pass? I've never seen a crossbill in the flesh, lucky you.

Hyfryd iawn.

Howard

+1 to that.

Howard you are spot on these are on the moors but are on the south side but if you walk far enough you can reach the horseshoe pass

I have never seen crossbills before but there were quite a few of them flying around
