2. Female Red-backed Fairy-wren


3. Striated Pardalote


4. Golden-headed Cisticola


5. Flight of White Ibis

Really nice set, Alan. Those little birds are so colourful, and I bet not easy to photo...

Thanks Mark. The small birds don't often sit still for very long, but the Fairy-wrens will sometimes come quite close. This male popped up on grass stem near where I was standing and stayed long enough for me to get about six shots.

The Cisticola was taken from a bird hide which has never worked for me in the past, but has had some activity around it recently.

The Pardalotes are very small and usually quite shy and hard to see, so good shots are rare for me. This one was a bit far away, but at least it was in the open.

[MJ224]

Yes, the Pardalotes is a spectacular bird for certain...

Excellent shots, Alan. The first and fourth ones are very clean.

Thanks David, yes those birds were kind enough to pose in a nice open spot.

Your usual very high standard with your bird photos has well and truly been maintained here Alan. 10/10
