Good shot David :) Do these little birds make those whistling/chirping sounds? I'm pretty sure i have heard them make those sounds before.
David de Groot said: More information contestant ;-)
They do make a noise, but I've not yet learnt it. I can recognise various small birds by their call, but not this one (yet).

David de Groot said: Thanks James :) Sure is Adam :) hehehe He hung upside down for a bit and gobbled these berries.

Its good but I'm thinking we need bigger lenses!!
SkattyKat said:
lol Ross, think I suggested a while ago you guys take your wives out to dinner "together" & hit them with it ...... It would need to be somewhere really really nice though I should imagine lol
David de Groot said: Yep, much bigger ;-) I'm thinking 800mm :)
(of course this would involve buying lotto tickets) I don't think one dinner would cut it ;-)
