A mixed flock of redpolls and siskins came by this morning to tear the birch seeds apart. Didn't last long or provide many photo ops, and was completely frenetic while it was happening.
Nothing really special about this one but it is the first time I caught a good shot of this species semi out in the open. So was a happy moment for me.
I hope everyone enjoys this image! :D
Common Darter (Sympetrum striolatum) male.
These dragonflies are braver than most and not so easily spooked. This one was seen perched on a plant in my pond, and although it's named the Common Darter, I see very few in my garden. I do see them in abundance when I go out and about though.
Shot with my D70, a camera that can be picked up for less than £200 these days. As you can see, it's still a more than capable camera.
Wishing you all a great day!

I know where they hang out now. :-) Find a nice quiet day, no nearby frisbee golfers or fishermen, wear camo and squat/sit quietly hiding behind my camo-dressed lens, and I might just get a moment with them at this local regional park in Chino, CA. Gallinule in non-breeding color, I might add.

First trip of 2022 was to WWT Slimbridge on 5th Jan. Weather was fine and there was plenty of Bird activity.
It was also really great to catch up with fellow photographers some of who i hadn’t seen for 2+ years or more. I also met some new photographers. It really was a good start to the year.
