Default Why do I like these little guy's so much ?

I never thought that I would be a bird watcher but sometimes they are so perfect to shot. ....With a camera that is.

These are both lovely! I'm the same, I never thought I'd be a bird watcher, but the more I learn about them and watch them, the more I enjoy them.
I was sitting at a cafe in Thailand near our home last week and watching the tiny birds in the huge fig tree behind us and just wished I'd brought my camera.
Great Job on these and Thanks for sharing them
Michael

Default Thank You

Thanks for all the kind words regarding the "little ones" I think I like the first one better. The colours just seem to jump out at you as well as the bird.
