Yes
About time too :LOL: Apart from being pleased that this is a first for me, I was more relieved to know that the two females have at least got some company. All three have been going backwards and forwards every twenty minutes or so on the feeders. the females love the Peanut Butter whilst this Male loves the insect block. He was more often than not flying straight down on to the cage, so after a bit of arranging I forced him on to the perch. C&C welcome and thanks for looking.

Nice one Rich, as you say, patience paid off. Cant decide between 3 & 4 as a favourite, both good but with different BG, I'll settle for both I think, but they are all pleasing shots. Lovely sharp images and good colours, well done (y)
 
Well done Rich some excellent shots there :)

There's a lot of waiting involved in bird photography ;)
 
Lovely shots indeed, and a pretty bird.

But I gotta ask, what is it?

:amstupid:
 
Thanks guy`s. Andy / Vaughan it is a Male Blackcap. Here is one of the female for comparison.

That will depend on what you are swapping :thinking: Thanks.
 
Well done Rich, great shots as usual, pleased you have got what looks like a breeding pair.

Lovely work mate, beautifully clean and sharp.

Well done Rich glad you got the male don t want to sound to negative but I know you always take it ok but I feel they just need a bit of punch I don t know if they need much contrast there is just something I can t put my finger on they seem a bit to grey if that makes sense
 
I reckon its still the female who's been to the featherdressers and had a black rinse put in ! ;)

Well nice shots Rich :clap:

Thanks again for the comments. Kaz I think you have a valid point there as in the originals he does seem to have some slightly shaded and different tones to the chest. I have done a slight variation on two of them but still not 100% sure. Not an excuse but me puter is still playing up and cannot get it sorted until at least next week, so at the moment it is kind of guess work. Please feel free to point out anything that does not look right with the edits.

It might just be me then Rich they are cracking images I just can t explain what they are missing maybe vibrancy is the word now the female image looks better the greens look more vibrant is the camera on sRGB

No probs Kaz and I know what you mean when you say you cannot see what it is. And btw the female was not from today but a week or so ago, so the green moss is alive ;)

Sorry to hear that Rich, my thoughts are with you (y) Yes it would be great to sort out a meet again but that can be sorted at any time which suites you. Trev4 is itching to get down here and give me a hug :naughty: But he is too busy at the moment watching doctor and nurse programmes on telly. Something about a bloke with a bad case of a toilet brush stuck up his arse :puke: My concerns for him are growing by the day now :shake::shake:
