This is the gallery of Bird photographs taken in and around United Kingdom during business /leisure travel.
This image of the Robin in song was shot at Avon Reserve in Salisbury.Added a little spotlight effect and and a little noise to give a painting look
African Forest Owl
The African forest owl one of my favourites in the HCT. He landed himself on this fence post with the afternoon sun shining on his body and game me a nice portrait which i have been waiting for for a long time.
I had seen Kingfishers during my visits to Exeter and Dorking on trains. Had always wanted to capture a decent image. After two unfruitful attempts in the past 2 months i finally got him basking in the sun on the outcrop of a tree stump in the Avon reserve.
Saw this bid perched on a branch of a tree while retuning from a fruitless seatch for the kingfisher today/ Gave me an opportunity for a portrait shot
This Pheasant gave me a perfect pose for an image which is suited for the drawing room wall.
I had always wanted to try out a fill flash for a long time. This Blue Tit offered a chance. It stayed there long enough for me to set-up the flash and take a couple of shots.
Here is another shot with fill flash This time a Great Spotted wood pecker. I had used the Flsh extender on my SB600
I am amazed by the beauty of this bird. The Mandarin duck. I was not able to control myself form clicking image and image of this bird. Have taken almost 20 shots.
I was trying to get adjust my tripod to get a
low level shot of this pheasant. All of a sudden it gave a very load call which
in fact scared me and made me press the trigger by
accident. When i viewed the image - I was amazed by the display of this bird.
This gold finch was there on the feeder for quite a while . I was waiting for it to perch on a nearby bush/tree to get an environmental shot. He game me an opportunity after 45 mins of wait. A strong contender for the image of the month slot.
This little fellow landed on the feeder as I was packing up for good from Arundel. I grabbed my camera, leaned against the window of the hide and took a hurried shot.The light was just enough to get a decent image. "Image of the month" so far from my first 1Gb card. Have 3 more cards to download. Let me see if there are anymore contenders?
