Buff-rumped Thornbill (Acanthiza reguloides), central Victoria, Australia. Not a very common species for me; I've seen them a few times at a distance, but rarely up close like in this shot. Their white eyes are very distinctive and certainly stand out.

The buff-crested bustard is in the species family Otididae, and lives in the eastern areas of Africa, semi-arid and bush land regions. Omnivorous, they consume large quantities of plants, insects and invertebrates. They live in large numbers, however, not much research has been conducted on these interesting birds in the wild.

Found this hiding among some images I took a couple of months ago - thought you might like it!

This tiny bird was poking about in the thick undergrowth; but revealed itself long enough to allow this shot!

** Best viewed Large on Black!! **

Thanks once again for any comments, views or favorites - most appreciated!!

Have an awesome day, weekend and week ahead everyone!

Buff-winged Starfrontlets are appropriately named and have a conspicuous buff-colored patch on their wings. These hummingbirds are rather territorial and often pursue other hummingbirds in high chases, or guard flowers from others from a nearby perch. Buff-winged Starfrontlets inhabit dense cloud forests, elfin forests, and nearby shrubby areas. They are most often seen foraging low around forest borders where they primarily feed on nectar by hovering or briefly clinging to flowers.

The Buff-tailed Coronet (Boissonneaua flavescens) is a captivating hummingbird species, photographed at La Minga Ecolodge, near Cali, Colombia, in the heart of the Andean cloud forest. This particular individual perched delicately on a branch, surrounded by the soft, diffused light typical of the forest canopy at 1,900 meters. The bird’s shimmering green feathers, complemented by hints of bronze and its characteristic buff tail, contrasted beautifully with the muted greens and browns of the background. The natural bokeh created by the lens added depth and focus to this vibrant subject, enhancing the intimate connection between viewer and bird.

 

I used a Canon R5 with the 100-500mm lens to achieve this shot. With a shutter speed of 1/125 sec and ISO 800, I relied on the R5’s advanced stabilization to produce a crisp image despite the slower speed. The overcast lighting softened shadows and reduced harsh highlights, making this an ideal moment to capture the intricate details of the bird’s plumage. For me, this image reflects the joy of bird photography—waiting patiently for fleeting moments and trusting the combination of technology and instinct to preserve them.
