Well the other day I was working away on the Bio Pic film script I've been doing lately and I glance down and just sheltering on the ledge of the French Windows was a Chiffchaff:
at first I thought "maybe he flew into the window and was dazed" but you tend to remember when birds announce their inability to see glass, by slamming into it.
So I went outside to see if it was okay, worried that it might get eaten by a cat if it just stayed where it was. Amazingly the Chiffchaff showed little interest in me walking right upto it and sitting watching it. I took my camera with me and whilst I'll admit up front the images aren't as sharp as I'd like them to be, I'd like to share them with the forum as I've never really taken any bird shots I've been proud of before.
Far from my proximity putting it off the little Chiffchaff just sat there almost posing while I snapped away for 92 shots, before flying away.
Sorry for waffling on, just wanted to provide a little context, here are a few faves, I might add one or two more, enjoy:
