Default Some shots from the past

I haven't taken any images in the last two days so I am posting some old images I had.

Great Set Frank, your focus is spot on and these are lovely. The last one is well done, it's hard to capture B & W birds and have the detail show up like this.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.

These are all fantastic captures. I love the dof against the striking colours in the first shot. I've never seen such a pretty tiny yellow bird before. Thanks for sharing.

4 excellent shots. Lots of fine detail and a great variety of birds. I've enjoyed looking at these.
