Re: Birds 2011
Cracking stuff Paul - really like that fancy looking duck
Nex 5, Nex 6 (IR), A7M2, A99 and a bunch of lenses.
Re: Birds 2011
All beautiful, with the duck photo being a little more spectacular for the marvellous range of colours and inclusion of the mirrored reflections.
Thanks for sharing, Paul.

Re: Birds 2011
No stunning close-ups from me I'm afraid, but I rather liked this group of Oyster Catchers that flew over while I was chasing waves (photographically ).
Oyster Catchers by Birm, on Flickr
According to Google the group noun is a 'Parcel' of Oyster Catchers. I thought a 'Peep' sounded better . I have had some nice sightings of Golgen Eagles over the last two weeks, but too far away for the beercan.

Re: Birds 2011
Now I remember, I saw the picture of the Oystercatchers and I wanted to do some research but got sidetracked, I thought it was unusual for Oystercatchers to be in large groups 'parcel' I always got the impression here that they were only loosely associated with one another and sortof hung about mostly in pairs, so I was quite impressed with that shot showing them flying in formation. Good one Birma.
Those Rainbow Lorikeets are pretty Lusine Flake but the can be quite noisy in a large group. I know first hand, there is a tree they like when it's in flower not far from my bedroom window.
