[jakethepig]

Hi all my friends and family.. As you know I've had some time on my hands, so i've been doing a little bird watching in my garden. Here's a couple so far. I bought a new feeder to try and coax some new ones. So here's some of my new feathered friends.
I hope you enjoy They help me relax.

4 Great shots Dave, you must be very patient to get these, the comp in the 2nd is bang on the button, I the blackbird in the 1st looks full of character, even cheeky perhaps.
Great stuff from you as always mate.
hope your recovering well buddy!

Thank you Glyn I'm learning to relax and that helps my patience. I'm recovering real good buddy and taking it easy and slowly. Cheers buddy.

Hiyas Dave , puts a big smile on my face to just see you getting outside and enjoying what you love

They are great , not so easy to shoot twitchy little birds is it ? heh... but I think it's perfect for you , it takes time to get them clear and looking the right way... so there's no choice but to just sit still and wait.

Interesting to me that they have the Jakester look to them, that deep contrast and sharp edges I've admired since I first came to DPS and we became friends... it's good to know you lost nothing of your talent !

Keep it slow and easy Buddy, but keep it going,

Vin

great set Dave .. all so nice but that 2nd is my fav .. I love how you've composed the shot, and how the birds head mimics the curve of the garden gate .. they'll be fat and happy with your taking care of them bud ..
