Black redstart (Phoenicurus ochruros)

Environment type shot ...full frame.
Habitat
Urban
Location
Manchester
Date taken
8th June 08
Scientific name
Phoenicurus ochruros
Equipment used
Canon 40D Sigm 500 tripod
Around March I think but the 40D had a couple of weeks in canon's hospital. I still use my 'over exposing' 20D with a filthy sensor. The 40D is a nice number but so too is the 20D and I am rather fond of it even though it looks like it's done 10 revolutions in a cement mixer.
 
Habitat:- rocky places (in this case) cut and dressed. well spotted "Urban Birder". TFS.
 
Splendid historical-and-nature image,Adrian and I love your presentation :t::t:
 
:bounce: Gorgeous and unusual Redstart picture, Adrian!!! :t: :t: :t: And the bird shows a refined taste on architectural styles... perches on the mossy corner! ;)
 
Sounds like your 20d is a battered old friend Adrian!! and you know it inside out, back to image, great man made habitat image mate :t::t::t:
 
A very nice environment shot and the bird looks very comfortable in its man-made habitat.
