Bearded Tit Bug Hunting

[Ken Hadfield]

Taken at Pensthorpe Nature Reserve, Norwich UK June 2103

It took a lot of patience and a lot of images to get what I wanted but this beautiful bird was well worth the effort.

Hi Ken,
The action, perfect water ripples and species of bird are excellent.
I love this but that cropped tail is a killer for me...
Did you do something to areas in the BG? Looks like some artifacting/blobs in that silk like BG,

One of the birds in my wish list. Great IQ & killer pose. Agree with Gail about the issues.

[Frank Schauf]

Nice pose and sharp detail.

[Doug Brown]

I like the behavior captured and your sharpness looks good. Head angle could be better, and I wish you hadn't clipped the tail feathers.
