Wow, awesome shots! It's hard to pick a favourite, but I always like the long tailed tits, so it must be one of the first. But all are very good IMO!

Sharp, detailed, brilliant pics. With a 300mm you must be real close to the birds.

cindy s · 03-01-2009, 09:52 AM

Wow! Very impressive images! I love them all

Nice series, I think I like #4 the best, but they are all good.

I will have to agree with Mike #4 is a winner. I do know how hard it is to get a great shot of these little guys. Well done. JIM

Very nice seriesd of birds!
I`ve seen those last two species in Norway, but I think the first one was the cutest! Lovely!

You have done a fine job capturing these. I think that lens looks really good in your hands. How far away are you from these guys?

ve2vfd · 03-01-2009, 01:12 PM

Wow, those are SHARP bird pics! I am impressed.

Were you using a tripod to keep the shots stable at 300mm?

The plumage details are amazing. I would love them to visit me daily too

wildman · 03-01-2009, 02:26 PM

First rate shots - well done.

Thank you all for your comments...

All shots are hand-held, usually do not use the tripod, the SR does a magnificent job,
the distance of the birds, ranging from 4 to 6 meters,
I have the good fortune to have them close, because, to give them food for the winter, and this year are more numerous than usual...

Ciao
