    Default Splendid Fairy Wren

    This is a spectacular little wren found in drier inland areas of central and eastern Australia (and a sub species in the south west). This is the Victorian mallee form.
    Thanks for looking, Greg.

    Wyperfeld NP, Vic. D800, 300 2.8, 1.7TC, f7.1, 1/500, ISO250

    Hi Greg it's nice when they decide to get up on a twig like this, smashing pose and colour.

    Top shot Greg. Great pose/perch and complimentary background.
    I am still constantly amazed by the variety and colour of Australian birds. Was this the one that was recently voted Australia's favourite bird?

    Splendid indeed. Lovely colors, pose, and that nice Aussie BG. Was this much of a crop?

    Hi Greg, cool angled pose into the frame, and how are those blues on this fellow. Lots of finer detail to look at, and the wren really pops from the BG. Well captured.
