This is a lovely photograph. I like how the wings are flared out.

I am not going to lie, I am a bit scared of birds. But they are pretty from a distance!

Maybe he wants to play: Peck Peter's eyes out?

I could get even closer now! It's amazing how much better the 18-400mm lens is! Can't wait to try it out properly!

Wow, you must have stood quite close!!

Haha, don't make me jealous! I'm still limited to only 55mm!!

That was taken with my old 300mm lens. I was at the bottom of the tree, about 6m away.

You photos are fantastic Emma! I think you would get some amazing photos if you had a good zoom lens!
