If you can't beat them...

Flying birds again.

My blipping seems to get stuck in a rut at times.  Sometimes I shoot flowers for days on end sometimes birds.  Now I seem locked on flying birds.  Recently the birds at the feeder have had me trying/thinking about shots.

Today I resorted to doing things remotely.  I set the camera pointing and focused on the feeder.  Leaving space to the left for the flying birds as they generally come from the Osmanthus delavayi.  I know know why they say never work with animals or children.  The birds changed the habits of a life time and came in from the right.

I was reasonably pleased with this one.  The birds are House Sparrow, Blue Tit and Coal Tit.  I said remotely as using the Pentax I can be at the other end of the room see fluttering birds and trigger the camera using the remote.
