Not sure of the exact name of this bird,I'll ID later,(if any orno's know please feel free to ID).
Was out cutting fire wood,late today-saw a wedge-tail land close but no camera-went home to get it,of course it was gone when I got back.
But I managed a few quick images of this lovely song bird,it really has a sweet song.The sun was at good angle,but not that bright-approx 4.30 pm.So I used 1/640 AV 7.1,and iso 320.
He was on the fence post and I was driving up along and I got as close as I could and took 4 or 5 frames from the car window.
On review,I think I could possibly have used a higher speed:question:
These images are both the same,just different crops.I noticed the first low res here looks better than the 1.54 MB version.the finer feather details look sharper.
Anyhow-thanks for looking-Chris
