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!

Took me a while to find the right end of this thread. I have, regrettedly deleted hundreds of pictures, which I deemed not worth keeping. I mistakenly, honestly believed, when I bought my Nikon D200, that all of my pictures would automatically come out perfect. But every picture, no matter how imperfect, is still a record of an event. And if its a first. Then all the more worth keeping.
Hi all! Just found this thread and having now some serious stomach cramps :)))) I bought my first cam less than two years ago so you can imagine I have loads to give to this thread. I’m kind of osprey-bits-specialist mostly - so enjoy an envy LOL

Hello auntie from Finland. It's nice to see someone from the Osprey Group posting here. We're all masters of the bad photograph so it's good to see you keeping up the tradition. LOL
Actually, I reckon if your third photo had been taken half a second earlier it could have been a cracker.
Trying to get dry in this weather is a pain...
And this is what happens if you scratch too hard...
