Little Pied Cormorant and Grey Fantail.

Found a LP Cormorant to post for Heva (Heva asked about Pied and Little Pied on my last post). On the way home I discovered a few Grey Fantails, too. Thanks for viewing.

awwww thanks George he's lovely....great shot of the grey fantail too, I find them the hardest birds to photograph, always on the go!

Use what talents you possess; the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best

Great sharp shots again. Agree that it is very hard to get a shot of the grey fantail, esp. a sharp one like this

A grey Fantail, one and the same as one I couldn't ID a week ago, only yours is better.

Thanks everyone for your comments. The Grey fantail is a gorgeous bird and one of the sweetest in the land. I've been trying for a decent shot of one for quite some time. The best opportunity I had was a few years ago when my daughter and I were surrounded by at least a dozen of them. Not a single shot of them was worth keeping. The buggers just wouldn't stop moving ! Regardless of my failure, the sight of that many GFs has stayed with me.

Cheers,
