Hi,
I'm looking forward to posting photos of Blue Wrens and a New Holland Honeyeater I took on a recent holiday.
Birds seem a big challenge after mainly taking close up shots of Australian wildflowers.
Do they ever stay still?
I'm also quite excited seeing an Eastern Spinebill visit my city garden after 15 years not seeing one here.
Native birds are gradually returning to my suburb as people plant more indigenous trees and shrubs that provide them with shelter and food.
I've bought myself a Sigma 50-500mm lens to go on a Nikon D70 - so we'll see if I have the patience to get some decent photos.
Cheers,
Chris
