Pink Grey and Wild

Striking pink and pale grey suit this jovial character.

A sumptuous sunflower seed is pure indulgence for the bird who seems to speak a trilled language.

The messiness of the order tumbles from a worked beak.

A smile ignites in his eye and enlightens a cheeky personality as the burst of seed is enough to make this bird wild.

This wild bird was photographed in my neighbour’s yard on the Canon EOS 1D MK IV

Until Next Time – Happy Shooting

In the garden

I was inspired today to get in the garden with the camera after seeing some photos by Albany blogger Julie Holland.

Since renovating the garden (which is ongoing) flowers have been a bit scarce.  Today I spotted a rose coming to life out the back. With a hop in my step I set up my macro kit and fired one off.  Hands were steady and ready as I pressed the shutter to capture this little beauty. No tripod used just a solid Leigh!
