        Yes, I know the feeling – the same with some of my birds and plants. 🙂

      Had to do about 100 frames o finally get a shot I liked! They sit still for about a nano-second!

    Baz, these four zebra finches are sharp looking wingers, and they look like they are pretty tight. Nice treat for me on this Saturday night in the Rockies. No zebra finches up here that I am aware of.

      Thanks Nancy, ook a while to get this shot, but then lazing around the outback doing nothing more than this is quite appealing anyway…
