A couple of Portrait shots of a female and male. Just a hint of blue in the male.

Love the angle of the first shot!

That's gotta be at least 12 outta 10 for that effort Shorty.
I've been shooting them the last couple of weekends at Organ Pipes and haven't come close to shots like yours.
Thanks for sharing, and I can that 'hint of blue'.
Cheers, Denis.
Very nice. Up close with so much detail.
What great shots shorty, love the detail! Sometimes they look like grumpy old men with a beard when they look at you like the first shot.
Beautiful detail.
Impressive detail. The first shot reminds me of a biker with a long grey beard. Just needs a helmet.
You seem to be happy with the 100-400 now.

These are such great photos, but how do you get so close? I often see fairy wrens but they move off if I try to get closer to them.

Don't move to them, stand still and let them come to you.
