Ok I am jealous - I have never been able to get a clear shot of one of these little guys - they are in constant motion. Excellent detail and clarity.

This is phantastic! I wonder how came that he let you get this close. Every now and again one of those visits our backyard, and if I only THINK of getting the out, they hide on the far side of the trunk.

If I do have the cam at hand and do something as daring as tiptoe closer (like 25 Meters or so), they are gone in an instant. Good on yer this one didn't.

cool, i really like the colours on the bird.

i think the angle is quite awkward, it almost looks like it's walking upwards, but seeing as i don't really have any photography skills i can't tell if it's stylistic or not!

but i like the focus and the blurred background

thats what they do , hopping around the tree looking for bugs and grubs
