Still wandering the local paths and country roads in an approximate 3 mile circle of our house, the nice solid frozen footpaths have gone back to mud so doing more road work, but there is still plenty to see. The photos of Hares, Roe Deer, Tree Creeper, Yellowhammer, Fieldfares, Goldcrest and Kestrel were all taken standing by the side of the road.
These first 4 were all taken just behind where I live.
The rest were taken right by the side of the road, the Tree Creeper, Goldcrest and Kestrel were very close and obliging, the rest especially the Hares and Deer were a long way off as you might expect. One particular road is very good for views of Hares and we have seen up to 11 in one field.
Can you spot the extras in the Deer Pics and see the colour variation in one of the Fieldfares?
Good luck on your trips out and take care.

Yes it can be very much a catch 22.
While high ISO images can become grainy, if you've been used to film cameras, the issue of grainy images at higher ISO's isn't quite so prevalent.
It is very much what you're comfortable with vs what you want to achieve, and if you're comfortable with it, there's no harm in that.
As for features, you're very right. If I use 10% of the features on any camera, that is probably as much as I will ever use.
The important thing is, enjoy the hobby.
Hello Hazel,
You liked the winter Thrushes so here some more from Minsmere a couple of years back.
