Three sunny days in a row and our garden has come back to life, the honeyeaters are making the most of the blossoms before the day gets too hot. The brown tinged juvenile was much less sensitive to the shutter noise than the adults. zZ50 & 200-500F

The flash of color on the wings is so unnecessary. So vain and garish :-)

Richard, to quote the great Zero Mostel "Baby, if you've got it, flaunt it" !!

Fons, according to our resident "expert" it's Duranta Erecta, known commonly here as "Geisha Girl".

I spent the first two days of this week hoping to catch murmurations of Starlings at Ham Wall nature reserve in Somerset, UK

I finally did see some, but the first day was largely fruitless for photo opportunities....
...apart from a few times, such as when this Jay flew right in front of me!
I had barely enough time to frame and press the shutter, much less to check the exposure (sadly, overexposed)

One shot came out a little better than the others though
