Blackcap (Peterborough, between Werrington/Helpston) May 2013

Blackcap. (Canon 7D Sigma 300mm f2.8 lens plus 2X Canon MkIII teleconverter), hand held. Full frame.

 

I have always found Blackcaps very elusive and after about 5 days of trying to nail this bird this was the best I could come up with. However despite the bird being difficult to image it did on a couple of occasions come out in the open and sang so close I could have tapped it on the head!
