Spot Focus,

Great catch!

I have seen another photographer posted photo of this bird in another forum before, but definitely not as good as yours! Wink

This is posted for interest rather than photographic quality. While out birdwatching the other day I came across this one-legged Downy Woodpecker who was extremely friendly. He had obviously been well fed by local visitors but was also very adept at climbing and feeding himself. A few days later I was telling other birdwatchers who apparently had seen him for many months and nicknamed him "Stumpy".

Mike, that's a very good shot as well! Poor little bird with one leg...I don't think it can stick itself to the tree anymore with just one leg... Cry

Hi birders,

A tiny birdie from Greece. The taxonomic name is Phylloscopus collybita, the common english name is chiffchaff. K10D, Sigma 50-500, 100ASA, 1/160 at F6.7, SR on.

I will spend the last days of this beautifull April in Crete, tracking birds. I hope I will have some intresting fames to post.

Regards

Great capture. A friend of mine in Canada has a pet Kookaburra - super bird.
