all 3 wonderful

nice to put them in this trilogy

Thank you very much Annemarie...........glad you like the photos and the collage!

Beautiful collage of three lovely bird images
Great work Keith.

Glad you like this little collection Jaap.........thank you so much.

Mit diesen kleinen Tele hast du das großartig eingefangen lieber Keith,da hast du auch gleich eine sehr schöne Collage zusammen gestellt mit diesen tollen Flugaufnahmen :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Abend,liebe Grüße Güni :))

Thank you Güni.........sometimes you just have to do what you can with the equipment you have to hand. I was lucky to get these. I'm really pleased you like them.

Enjoy the rest of the day............best wishes, Keith.

Schöne Studie! - So als Collage ist das gar nicht schlecht. Bei einem Einzelbild würde der Vogel vielleicht etwas verloren wirken. - Ich nehme an, Du hattest auch die Belichtungszeit kurz.

Thank you kind sir..............I'm glad you like the collage and yes, you're right the birds would have been too small in the frame otherwise.

The shutter speed was 1/200 and the iso was 200. Unfortunately the App I use for the collage strips the exif out of the photos, so it doesn't show on IP.

They may be cropped but they are still sharp and full of detail. Great presentation too.

Thank you Ed...........glad you approve. Very much appreciated!

A wonderful set of images Keith you see them occasionally around here, a birder I know said 25 years ago it would have been a major event. For a kit lens the 40-150 is a good lens mine has a bit of creep now I don't know if it's something that can be fixed

Thanks very much Peter......glad you like this little collection.

I remember when I was a kid my Dad took me to see a little egret at Langstone and there were birders around from all over the country. They're very common nowadays.

Langstone Harbour Mill Pond has around 15-20 nesting there most seasons, as well as a few Grey Herons.

The lens I used for these was the 40-150mm f4 Pro. I also have the 40-150mm f2.8 Pro, which I will probably be selling on as I'm finding I need to reduce the weight I carry around. Both are excellent lenses!

I've already let my 100-400mm lens go as it was far to heavy for me.

Ja, ist schon klar! Welche Exif soll das Programm auch nehmen. Es sind ja drei verschiedene. ;-)

I use an Apple App called Diptic...........it's doesn't show any Exif at all once you add the photos. I even have to input the date taken manually.

Proposed some groups...
