Wren being restless in Prospect Park, Reading, UK. A little far away, so the 2x2 contact sheet is not actually losing detail, as these were heavily cropped.

Canon R6 + 200-800mm lens

Lighting, background and subject matter came together on this one, I was just there to record.

Blue Tit, other end of my balcony, Reading, UK Canon R6 + RF200-800mm lens (at 800mm). Still learning the lens, so managed not to notice had been knocked to F22

Image description: A raptor, with it's wings outspread, standing on a steeply slanted tree branch.

I think its a juvenile. There was around 6 hanging around a small nest of some sort and this one was on the branch for a few minutes preening.

They are just so cute.

edit: on my balcony in germany

I took this in Aruba before kids in 2016. Nothing special gear wise, thanks especially to a large bird that wasn't phased by me walking around near it..
