Yesterday we went to the Heronry at Trentabank Reservoir in Macclesfield Forest - you'll note the singular lack of Herons (distant dots in trees), so we took more accessible subjects! Here's a selection
#1 Bluebell'd Spider
First (and only!) Bluebell shot this season

Canon 350D, 100-400mm @ 320mm, f/7.1, 1/60, ISO100, HH
#2 Fly and Friend
Trying out Sigma 150mm 1

Canon 350D, Sigma 150mm macro, f/5.6, 1/30, ISO100, Monopod
#3 Common Frog
Trying out Sigma 150mm 2

Canon 350D, Sigma 150mm macro, f/2.8, 1/25, ISO100, HH
#4 Willow Warbler?
Think that's what it is - nest building

Canon 350D, 100-400mm @ 400mm, f/7.1, 1/160, ISO100, HH
#5 Kingfisher
Maybe not the real thing - a sculpture at Tittisworth Reservoir

Canon 350D, 100-400mm @ 260mm, f/5.6, 1/80, ISO100, HH
All comments - good, bad or indifferent - very welcome!
