Typical Nuthatch

Gallery: AvianPosted February 2, 20146,116 views25 comments

Today I spent an hour in a hide close to my home, and could frame this Nuthatch, in a typical pose...

Nikon D4 + 500mm f4 | 1/320s | f4 | ISO 450 | underexposed 1FS | tripod | from hide

Have a nice day

& thanks for viewing !

Another great capture. Love the background and the tree trunk. Doesn't get much better than this.

Typical nuthatch pose maybe, but uncommonly well photographed

Very nice Hans, perfect

The light is very nice here, and the IQ is delightful.
