This is the first time I've seen one of these beauties in my garden.

Oh thanks alot for all your great comments. ammadoux- I used the 70-200f4 IS lens with the 1.4 converter attached. We saw the Buzzard in a field right by the road, there was a verge of grasses so maybe that helped. He just didn't seem bothered by us although I didn't try to get out of the car.

Stunning image, beautiful light.

Just thought I would update you re my 7D. I returned it to the suppliers and they sent me out another one. The difference is fantastic. I have been trying it out over the past couple of weeks and am very pleased with it. I knew the original one was faulty and am so pleased I returned it.

Buzzards usually fly off when they see me coming but this one just carried on looking for worms. So I was able to take a few nice shots.

Faulty camera Hi there 7D users, I recently purchased the 7D and after a spending a few days using intensively found that I could not get images without really bad noise even at iso 400 the noise was really bad. I did lots of comparison shots with my 20D and the images on the 20D had less noise...

Thankyou so much for all your comments. I can't wait to get out again in the boat. There is an Osprey that visits us in the spring.So fingers crossed.

Took this shot from a small inflatable boat today,it was a little breezy but I managed to hold it quite steady.

This amazing little Goldcrest was barely holding on to this branch as it searched for food.

Hi Vectis Birder The web site is www.flickr.com. Then if you put in a search for Isle of Wight Birds, you will find us.

Hi Just like to plug a new photo sharing group started on the Flickr website. It is called isle of wight birds. The group is for anyone living on the island to post their images of wild birds photographed on the island. At the moment we are all enjoying taking amazing pictures of barn owls...

On a recent visit to the RSPB island of Ramsey we were priveleged to be on the island with only 3 other people and were lucky to be able to get close to this beautiful bird which was perched on the cliff edge. The weather was superb and I recommend the island to anyone who is in the area.

This was a bit of a grab shot taken whilst on holiday in mid Wales. Glad to get a few shots as didn't get to Gigren.

These Bee-eaters had just arrived in the Algarve, Portugal while we were on holiday there. The flock numbered about 30 and the sound of them amazing.

Excellent in every way.
