I gave in, I wasn't going to bother with them this winter but beings as there are so many in Leicestershire at the moment I went to have a look. The light was for ever changing, but I am happy(ish) with the results.
It was a real challenge but I wanted some flight shots, they were a little too high which resulted in heavier cropping than I would have liked, but my first ever proper in flight images of Waxwings.
And no set of Waxwing images should be without the customary "berry shot".
On the way home a new Barnie site was located, a couple of very shoddy record shots were achieved, the light was atrocious!
It's just too hard to resist Waxwings Paul:) Really like the looks of the Barn Owl too, it looks quite a mature individual
ReplyDeleteThe Waxwing flight shots are amazing. From Findlay
ReplyDeleteSplendid flight shots mate
ReplyDeleteGreat shots here Paul! I tried to catch up with some Waxies yesterday (after my all-too-brief encounter in November), but failed - they'd either gone, or I was in the wrong place!
