Just because there's way too much great photography on this site...!
You know the feeling. You only got one or a few photos of it and they're not very good, but you can't bear to throw the photos away because they're all you have of that particular species. So you keep them, just until you get better ones :) We've managed to 'upgrade' some of the species below since these bad pics were taken, but not all...
Please join in! I can't be the only one who hordes terrible wildlife photos :)
Collared Flycatcher
Otter
Peregrine
and best (worst) of all, Nightjar!

I'm told these crawled away for some fresh air... ;)
As for these, the fox still got them... :(
'Heaven doesn't want me and the devil's afraid I'll take over.'
I'm worried that the standard of photos in this thread is starting to creep up :(
So I'll attempt to redress the balance with a rubbish Sparrowhawk...
... and another...
and finally a rubbish Lapwing. I should say it's a rubbish photo. The Lapwing itself is great, not least because it was flying upside-down :)
Two rubbish photos but I love them both dearly.
Sparrowhawk and Goldfinch

A Goldfinch sitting on top of a tree while on our walk about yesterday. I had to crop the picture 2 times to get it to this standard. Dave said it is moulting as it is not looking its best

My first ever sighting of a Wheatear

Worry no more, I can be relied upon to bring down the standard anytime. :-)

I hope they are bad enough for you. He, He
Kind regards Jane.
Well this is a disaster picture of the underside of a Sardinian Warbler while on holiday in Menorca this year
At least you can see a bit of the bird
Hi All
I have just had a good laugh at this wonderful thread,
it made me look through my pics,
so here are some of my rubbish ones,
Oooopps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
forgot to tell you what they were supposed to be,
a very fast squirrel, then a dead twig covered in cobwebs very out of focus,
but i thought it looked very ghost like, so i kept the spooky shot,
the last is a Chinese water deer, every time i focused & was ready to click
the little blighter put its head down, this is the only shot i kept

It's Spot the Dog.
The Squirrel was called Tufty (although I have to admit Tufty was a Red Squirrel )
