    Captured this Mistel thrush in a Mountain Ash tree( Rowan)
    The colours make such a nice contrast. And the Mountain Ash is such a pretty tree

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.

    Yes as Maureen says nice close ups Chocky. I actually bought a Rowan tree with some of my birthday money and one of my cats is using the base as a toilet

    You can put a mini fencing round it. These are my favorite trees Did you know they are one of the plants that is a replica of it's self . Like the fern. each fern is identical to it's leaf and that is identical to it's branch and the tree is or should be the same shape too.
