I love these little birds, they have an amazing loud volume for such a small bird and they sing beautiful. 1D Mark IV 700mm iso 640 F 7.1 1/160 sec  1D Mark IV 700mm iso 1000 F 7.1 1/2000 sec  1D Mark IV 700mm iso 1000 F 7.1 1/1600 sec  1D Mark IV 700mm iso 1000 F 7.1 1/2000 sec  Regards, Tom |

Wonderful series Tom, great details and spot on exposure. These looks like very close captures, the tail is not yet sharp even at f7.1. Did you use a hide to get this close?

Thanks Ray, I didn't use a hide, he was looking for insects on the ground and came back to the same spot several times, i sat there on the ground and after about 15 minutes he came close enough and i could make this series at about a distance of 5 meters, so you are right he was very close  Tom |

Great series, Tom. You were so close.
What are those white smoke-looking OOF BG in the first image?

I like all but I love the first one the most... a tiny bird in praise! Thanks for sharing. Lydia
PS. Now I am curious about the bird call of the Wren... let me check out some sites.

I almost missed this one. They are magnificent as they portray the beauty of the bird and nature. This is the work of a master photographer. Well done Tom & Mabuhay.
