It’s not that warm but it is spring. Here in Wellington the flax has begun to flower and the tui are plentiful. These are a few shots from earlier this week.

Awww I'm thinking wrens are all around the world in one form or another - are they? I know plenty of you are from Europe and beyond - what wrens (or similar small birds) do you have? The Superb Fairy-wren is pretty common on the East Coast of Australia ... this little guy is halfway into breeding plumage, so he looks a little patchy!

Eurasian Skylark hidden in plain sight. I was lucky to find a gap in the grass just as it turned toward me. I really like their little raised “hairdo” (tufted crest?)!

I'm working on a new course and I'm curious to know which shooting mode you use? Comment the relevant numbers below 1: Aperture Priority 2: Shutter Speed Priority 3: Auto ISO 4: Full Auto 5: Manual 6: A combination (tell me more if you can) Thank you in advance!! This will help me share the most relevant information 😊

For quite some time, I had been hearing and seeing a male redstart singing from the very top of a far-away tree. I finally got to see the young ones last week or so. Since then, I haven’t seen or heard them again, but luckily I managed to get some shots!
