Due to the abysmally bad weather here in Derbyshire over the last few months, I have confined myself to shooting from my office window. I have various perches set up near the feeders. It has worked pretty well. A few images from the winter months.

One of a pair of feisty Robins

Hi David,

A terrific series of shots of beautiful creatures - the robin is (just) our favourite. Garden/ office feeders/ perches are a great idea for capturing local wildlife.

(We were last up your way - Castleton - back in December. We got absolutely drenched. ).

Keep up the great work - and faith - summer is fast approaching! Thank you for sharing...

Hi Only RF,

Fantastic captures of beautiful creatures - the shot of the cormorant is absolutely stunning (well done!).

Thanks I got lucky. That's at the end of a pretty slow day.

Hi Only RF,

Ah, basking in the soft glow of a warming sun to the sound of bird song - we can but dream...

(Another grey/ grim drench-fest here this morning - we're toying with starting to construct an ark).

I was not going to post this one. Pushed cropping a bit. Sometimes you can and sometimes you can't. No two files are alike.

Hi Only RF,

The R series cameras have incredible crop-ability, but as you say, everything will have its limits - eventually...

Love the Cormorant image, feather detail is great,

The feather detail on the Cormorant is just sublime. Do you find the extender slows down the AF at all?
