A bit of fun this one really. As I mentioned in the Fly Catcher thread, I saw plenty of birds last week, some of which I know, others I am unsure of. So, I thought I would put it to the audience as it were. More to the point, I would be grateful for the help in identification, as I am still learning about this wold life lark, and loving every minute of it. I just wish we could have managed a shot of the stoats we saw running down the road, twice!!
I must apologise in advance for the quality, or lack thereof, of some of these images. For the majority, it was late afternoon under trees, and the more I start to do this kind of stuff, the more I am feeling the limitations of my sigma 70-300 with its F5 at the 300mm end. I predict a Nikon 70-300VR coming along soon .... or maybe even the 70-200 + teleconverter, but in the meantime, I am making do, and in good light the sigma is pretty fine.
So, here ya go, 9 different birds for you to identify, a couple I know, several I dont....no prizes I am afraid, though bragging rights are obligatory
