Spot the Bird
As I was editing my photos from our visit to Ferne Animal Sanctuary on Friday, I very nearly discarded this one – until I saw the capture of the beautiful bird in flight. It is so well camouflaged against the trees that I considered myself very lucky to get the photo!
For lots more photographs from our trip please see my previous post.






Once again another great photo. Stunning of that bird x

What a great capture, I know what you mean I discard so many shots, I am glad you took a closer look at this as the focus is not always is the obvious place is it, I love how it has frozen the bird x

Hi Victoria, it’s a lovely photo and looks as if the bird posed, just long enough for you to get the picture.

Thank you Debbie – she really did 🙂

It would have been a shame to have binned this – it’s a great motion capture of a particularly graceful moment.
I totally agree Tim. Thank goodness I didn’t 🙂 Thank you.
