A series of a grey wagtail. I really love that colorful bird on the dead brown reed.

Nice series. I especially like the first shot.

My first crested tit.
Couldn't avoid the twig. Don't like to remove something like that in PP - could have been difficult, though.

Very nice shots, guys.

Hey everyone, it's been a while for me posting anything! I spent 5 weeks in Florida, between February and March. As always, Florida bird photography is incredible! I will keep it to a few small galleries too not take up too much on here, however I made a long post on my website if you're interested in seeing the majority of 300+ photos I edited from the trip. All photos taken with 7D mk ll and either EF 600 F4 ll or EF 100-400 ll, with and without 1.4x lll. I'm back in Wisconsin now and focusing on the spring migration.

Lovely shots. What a wonderful time you have had Jeremy! I feel like emigrating.

Just trying to get decent shots of our rather drab small birds. I have to say on a bright day like today, the 100-500mm with a 2xTC is the best lens I have ever had for this task for walking around searching for them. Here is a Reed Bunting;

- "drab small birds": I still have to see it in real. In the part of Europe where I was born it's very local and uncommon. Nice shots!

Nice series, Alan. I especially like the 2nd picture.
