Bath time.

[Lester]

Hi all,

I got a remote shutter controller, so set up the 5D MK II on tripod outside and waited for bath time. Even with shutter speed of 1/1,000 of a second the wing tips are still blurred.

2=big splash
3=wattle bird waiting its turn for a bath.
4=wattle bird comming in for landing.
5=wattle bird taking off.

Nice pics Lester. Up here in NE NSW we get the White Cheeked Honeyeater as opposed to the New Holland Honeater. They are all starting to breed with the onset of the Banksia flowering. As for the Sparrow they've almost dissappeared from around here
