BIRDS! G.C. Bird Survey photos.

Only a sparrow !!!????

He's a beauty WOO! They are rapidly becoming an endangered species in some areas.

Who'd have thought it....? :confused:

Thanks for such a lovely pic - what sort of lens have you used to take this - it is an interesting curvature on the image border.

Ta WOO :thumb: He's on the list!

 

well WOO, I'm not a fan of roses but if the grow into that handsome fella, i'll start planting a few!!

great photo, I love sparra's, they keep me amused for hours, flitting around and making a racket!

 

Well captured Jane, great shot. :thumb:

 

WOW - great photo WOO

Get those pink legs!!! Good to see a photo with the birds 'doing what they do' - you and Nutty are the stars of the actionbird pics! Wish I could have grabbed a photo of the starlings when I was at Mums - they were flying away with massive beak fulls of feathers for their nests that she had put out by sacrificing an old feather pillow - they flew away looking like little gandalf the wizards with big white moustaches and beards.

Starlings are great.

:thumb:

 

Great pic Woo, watched three Starlings on our lawn, yesterday grabbing Leatherjackets by the beakful, funny part was watching a cheeky female Sparrow trying to pinch some from one of the Starling's beak.:D

 

New bird table !!??

Lets see a pic!



I like bird tables in the garden centres - especially the slate roofed ones - but some are a bit steep, cost-wise! I just dangle things on any available sticking out bits in the garden. However, my mum has a lot more success and far more birds with her bird table.

Expecting good photos from you WOO with this new addition to your lovely garden.

 

:thumb:Hi Woo,sorry I missed this photo of yours.Well done in getting a fantastic piccy of the Starling.Much better than anything I could manage:thumb:{Clap}Sorry we have lost all the best smilies,have to make do with this rubbish:rolleyes:

Cookie,Woo has already put up a photo of the bird table that he made somewhere on here

 

Nice pic of ? Mistle Thrush WOO - although it looks like he is in peril trapped in a massive raindrop :eek: - no wonder he is jumping up and down!!

Also well done on getting the dove in flight - nice to see the wing and tail feathers splayed like that.

The amount of photos I have had to delete today off my camera today of birds taking off, just legs, brown blurs and vacant branches! This wildlife photography malarky takes a lot of patience, practice and LUCK!!!! Maybe we should have a competition thread for the funniest WORST bird pics we take!

Keep up the ace photos everyone :thumb:

 

My photo of a Sparrowhawk taken in our back garden.
