I have been wanting to get a good shot of a Bearded Tit for many years now, and it finally happened yesterday. One posed for me for ages while on a hike around Rainham Marshes. I don't normally post multiple shots but here is a selection of this beaut.

Beautiful series.

That's quite a beautiful shot. Nothing but beautiful sharp eyes & feathers, with a smooth gradient of sky, water, and something unusually smooth & white undulating in front. Well done.

Thank you! It was rock in front, out of focus in the first place 'cause the bird was kind of hiding, and then additionally blurred in Photoshop to create this consistency of vagueness around the bird. I hope my words make sense...

I'll try again!! Those are so beautiful. Look like an Audubon painting. Great light and poses. Just perfect.

Few weeks ago I was rather exited by my first encounter of the Lesser Yellow legs (recorded specimens 1952-2016 = 94 for Oahu Island). Today almost equally bad shots (worst actually) of Ruff (1977-2012 = 30 specimens for Oahu) and I'm even more exited! I have to take some photos of the situation there with wider angle lens - just to illustrate the problems of approaching/taking photos of the birds there...
