Rose Robin

Finally got close enough to one of these for some decent photo's. i havn't got reach past 420mm FF equivalent at the moment so i had to get as close as i could and wait for the right moment and had a few seconds b4 he spooked.

Thanks sue, i was at Mt Annan botanic gardens. I have been getting teased lately by a very shy rose robin at my local (Mulgoa NR) the last week who likes to hide behind branches so this was an awesome moment to get the photo's elswhere 1st attempt.

Here is a photo of Mr Shy at Mulgoa NR
This was closest and best i could get of a Rose Robin before trying Mt Annan. I think i will have to try the camo net trick for him later. I have yet to try hides and camo nets.

Love these birds but they are very shy.

I got my first and only one last year at the Bunya Mountains QLD

Beautiful pics Vas, you should be pleased with them.
