Yes
Had a long and fruitless day yesterday, frustrated mainly by the high winds, and the fact that there wasn't much about anyway. The only saving grace was this little songster who made continuous appearances, but way too far away for quality images, so these are big crops right on the limit, but here they are warts and all....

Warts, what warts. I just see some loverly pictures(y)
 
That's a very good set, even more so considering they are big crops
 
All I can say CT is that I wish my good shots were that poor ! :D

Do you ever have what most of us mortals would call a bad day ??

LOL. Nice of you to say so Steve, but I have more than my share of bad days. This was a really early start - 25 mile drive and in the hide by 6am and if it hadn't been for this little fella the day would have been a total blank apart from gull shots.

This Sedgie kept singing his head off despite the wind doing it's best to blow him off his perch. You can see how big a crop these were from this full frame shot....

These really are on the limit, I couldn't show these any larger than this - they're purely web images. It's a testament to the 7D I suppose with crops of this size and high ISOs - I'm not whinging - just pointing out they could be lots better. :D
