Love the kingfisher shots especially No4, Top work.

Its such a great time at the moment to be out and about photographing our feathered friends, the little things are so hungry that they are almost taking food from your hand!.

I`m a bit limited with the Tamron 70-300 though, ideally i could do with the Sigma 150-500 but I cant think of a good excuse to wave under my wifes nose to get her sympathy (all suggestions welcome) especially after just lashing out on the K5 and the Siggy 10-20!.

Anyway, here is a few from this mornings outing.

#1 Blue tit


#2 Coal tit


#3 Male Chaffinch


#4 Female Chaffinch


# Sunlit Swan

Breathtaking scenery David, number one stood out to me immediately with the landscapes.

The pair of black fives look fabulous and giving a fine display of power for the photographers along the route (lucky you:wink Just sorry I couldn't be there.

Nicely timed shot David with the driver/fireman leaning out of the cab, this really adds interest to an already atmospheric scene.

No problems here, two weeks and it was in the bank

There is another on the 25th/26th Feb I`ll probably go to that as well, be nice to see you down there if you can make it!.

Thanks Sean glad you like them.

A couple more from me.

Two great sets of images there guys, My "through a dirty window" attempt didn't come out as good as yours David, I seem to have chosen a particularly dirty patch!!.

John,
I think the chap taking a photo of you/me! must have thought we were famous or something because we where using Pentax gear
