Who’s a Pretty Birdy Then?…

by on Dec.31, 2012, under Life, Photography

Spent a few days around Christmas at my parents house. My dad is a keen gardener (unlike his son :)) so they have a lovely flower filled back yard and a feeder for the birds. I’d brought my 50-500mm Sigma (BigMos) lens so I figured I’d try a little attempt at birding. The weather was pretty dull most of the time we were there (at least at the times the birds decided to come and feed) so we were pushing ISO to get any shots.

Note: These images (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger – so click any of the images below to see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer.
