Show your Bird Portraits

[AlanF]

In just a few minutes this evening, I took these small birds in my back garden. All were between 10-14m and taken at 800mm with the R5. Dunnock, female Greenfinch, Longtailed Tit, Eurasian Robin and male Greenfinch. I also saw a Jay, and heard Blue Tits, Great Tits, Wren, Chiffchaff, Bullfinch, Nuthatch, Blackcap and Song Thrush.

Yes, my own garden. Although we live in the city, we have a stream at the back with a meadow behind and loads of trees. We are in the driest part of the UK - you have to go to Madrid to get less rain.

I think you found a great place! My house has a forest with a stream, lake, and dam about three-quarters of a kilometer away. Sometimes I would like to be closer, but it also has a railroad track which even where I am, can be loud enough to hear. I wouldn't want to live close enough for it to be annoying...

I recently noticed that wood pigeons (columba palumbus) are nesting in the neighbor's walnut tree.
...
These are the first tries, fully manual, because the AF locked on anything but the bird.

The pigeon was now sitting in the opposite direction, some more light did also help.
And the spot AF instantly found the eye.

Post your Bird Portraits here

Parrots, Birds of Prey, Herons and all the others ... Just post your portraits here

The main idea of this topic is that the bird is clearly the main part component of the picture and that it is not a bird in flight or small bird on large tree or group shot ...

I will start with some of mine to start the whole
Have fun everyone and I hope to see many amazing shots soon:

Those are some pretty nice shot. The "colorful friend" lives up to its title . May I ask what equiptment you used?

Also... n00b question... But is there a way to post pictures from a Smugmug? I'm away from my computer, and it won't let me select from my iPad.

Smugmug is easy to link to in your posts. Just click share and then get a link in the upper right corner.

In Canon rumors, click insert image (bottom icon on the left) and paste the smugmug link.
