Beautiful series, ISv.

Thanks! First time I was able to sneak so close to Bristle-thighed Curlews!

Not one of my better images, not enough range on the lens I had mounted (only one) over cast and I missed the exposure. Processed it to something close to acceptable but it was a cool shot. Why does it always happen that you blow the great shots?

LOL ..... I missed it until you and Click commented. Mine is definitely preferred, yours was just a crappy situation.

You won't miss this one.

Wow, that looks like it hurts!

Bet you were glad that you weren't in Eric's position standing underneath that rocket.

I think we now got enough of that Bird S...cat

I wondered what this Bluetit was doing. Lunch it seems. (800mm/R5).

Both are very nice. Well done, Alan.

We don't normally see Mandarin ducks in the wild here, but a pair flew in briefly to a local reservoir and we were lucky to spot them.

Excellent shots and beautiful birds!
