House wren

Watched this wren singing away near a nest box. Don't know if it is a male, but assumed it is. Was able to get a couple shots of him singing through a window. Had missed a shot earlier when he landed just a few feet away from where I was looking for spider webs!

1/320 @ F-5.6 ISO 320

Nice shot and good detail. Don't always need 20 lbs of gear to get good shots.

Great pose, John. The smaller image looks excellent, but the larger image is showing an awful lot of noise.

Great close-up shot John. Keep those windows clean.

Cute pose. The smaller version looks OK, but the larger version has some really bad noise issues. I'm surprised at ISO 320.

This made me smile! I've got one under my kitchen window doing the same thing! Sharon
