Holy heck you can see the iris and eye colour of that blue tit. I am happy if I get a catchlight !

Thanks I wanted to try for more today but it looks like we've seen the last of the decent weather for a few days.

Could have done with some more of the lovely light we had today on him, but quite pleased with the detail.

Very nice, I can never resist a shot of a Robin, I'm convinced they like to pose for the camera

It is a well known fact* that all Robins are male, just as all boats and cars are female.

Ok, I know nothing about birds and never shot them, but since I had the camera on me I thought I'll take some photos of the seagulls (?)







and of course since it's me there has to be fisheye shot
