These are some others from my attempt to catch the self-involved Wrens.
I am going to try again for better sharpness, although I like the motion in these.
Here's a thing tho: The blue in the Blue Wren always seems extreme neon-like and I am wondering whether it's an effect of the UV or IR component of the colour.
I remember a documentary where a film make/researcher had discovered that some colours shaded into the neighbouring tones outside the visible spectrum. But, since the camera chip is sensitive to the extreme ends I wondered if it was making the blue over expose.
The discovery solved a riddle about what female birds found attractive in the mates and esp. in plain coloured birds. They apparently see a broader visible spectrum than we do.
Anyway, hope you enjoy the photos.

Floating Free

Was at the medical Marijuana Legalisation March today and saw that one of the balloons got loose.

Thanks RB. I didn't think I was going to get an entry again this month, but things worked out.

Airborne Spores

Thought I would thow in another 'John West' before it's closed for the month.
Airborne spores from a puff ball fungi (Lycoperdan Pyriformes I think).
