Gathering singing away

Two delightful pics of the Wren Beryl. A tiny bird with a 'big' voice something like ten times its size.

Thanks Pete.
Yes. It was singing and collecting worms Unfortunately it was really far off. I used 200mm-300mm DG macro and a couple came out not to bad but the one with the beak full of worms didn't

I know exactly what you mean about 'too far off' Beryl, I've been trying some pics of a Little-ringed Plover today but when I looked at them on the computer they were simply not good enough because of the distance between me and the bird. I did photography long enough to know you have to have the equipment otherwise......forget it.

Yes. This little wren had a favorite twig completely exposed as you see in the photo.I was quite lucky. Thing is they don't keep still and their whole littl body move when they sing

Merlin Regular Member Info Real name: Pete Location: N W England Equipment: Nothing but my notebook which is one of the most important parts of birding. To go out without it (which I only ever did once) is like going out without your pants on. I've never understood why I responded to the 'Cameras and Equipment' question in this way because in reality I own a Leica Telescope with eyepieces, Zeiss Binoculars, and a Manfrotto Tripod all of which cost a positive fortune.
