Originally posted by WPRESTO I worked for half an hour trying to get a picture of a fairy wren. Tiny, busy little birds. A very challenging subject. None of the few decent images I got were as good as the one posted.
Thanks. This one didn't come without some effort!
This little bloke was one of a small flock that hopped about on the grass near me, here one second, there the next.
All I could do was stand still and hope to be able to follow a bird and grab focus and the shot before it moved on. They were often within the minimum focus distance.
Not sure now how many shots it took to get a couple of decent ones, but it was a lot.
Cheers,
Terry
