What's Buzzin' or Flying Near You Today..? MK 3..

....Scrungee.....you lucky person...fab pics

and Strongy....Marvelous

 

Still using it Woo, frustrates me sometimes when the auto focusing is to slow to catch anything moving fast but using the extra optical zoom as in these shots does get you closer and fairly sharp at only 3mpx. I have started to pull back from max (50x) as sharpness is reduced, to say 35/40x, and then cropping if necessary.
I don't use any editing software at all.

 

Thanks Armand but I suppose cropping is editing.

 

We've seen up to 35 about 10 mins walk away. My FIL went away on a birdie watching weekend and couldn't understand why somebody got excited about seeing a single Red Kite - they're over our house/neighbour's gardens/our village all day.

As I've mentioned before, I even get reflections of Red Kites on my laptop screen coming through the window to my side.

 

The young son of one of our neighbours told us a couple of weeks ago that he saw some red kites nearby, but I've yet to see them. However we went to Llandeusant in the Brecon Beacons red kite feeding station last year and enjoyed it enormously. They are superb acrobats of the air.

 

Great pictures everyone.

Strongy the top two shots of the Egrets are spot on!

 

Fantastic shots everyone - don't know what's happened to the birds in my garden they seem to have flown the nest - must be they no longer like the meals I serve up or it's the squirrel that has scared them off.

 

Not a great amount here either GA,

Jenny

 

A few ducks down at Greylake on the levels today.

 

Great shots Zigs.

 

One day i'll get a proper camera

 

Doesn't look much wrong with the camera you are using - you've captured a real postcard effect.
