Popular Post philjay Posted June 2, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2017 Got him yesterday at last. This chap has been visiting the front yard feeder on and off for sometime, yesterday whilst playing with the Olympus OM D EM10 and Samyang 300mm both he and I were at the right place at the right time. +Bino-viewer, +Ibbo, tuckstar and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Lovely shot Phil, it's nice and sharp. Btw it's a male in case you didn't know. philjay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philjay Posted June 2, 2017 Author Share Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) I guessed as much that's why I called it a chap I'm learning slowly Oh and apart from cropping this was straight from the camera so no post sharpening. When you get focus this little lens is a good performer Edited June 2, 2017 by philjay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bino-viewer Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Nice Phil. They are very shy aren't they ?? This is the greater spotted one isn't it ? Not seen one of these at home, but they visit my father in laws often. We very occasionally have a green woodpecker visit us at home. They like to feed on Ants on the lawn. How they pick them up i don't know ? philjay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 With a really long sticky tongue Rob. And yes it's a great spotted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
