Olive-backed sunbird building it's nest.... unfortunately, it rained very heavily this afternoon, so i guess it's gonna rebuild it's nest again... :(
 

Hi ling, quite nice shots u hv there, very rare to find girls into nature photography.

Cheers..
 

Haha... then I guess I'm a social abnorm too?

(And hey! I got the 80-400 VR not long ago and am loving it. ;) )

Nice vivid colours of the male Changeable Lizard you have there. Judging from the many recent shots of this reptile it seems that they're actively set out to woo the females this wet season.
 

Thanx CYRN :) The lens is great so far although it does makes my arms strain, lol! guess i need a tripod.

^5 husky! glad you love the lens too! Yup it's definately the mating season for this guy by the looks of it's bright orange head and black throat.
 

very nice series , all done by 80-400 VR?
l like the 2nd lizard, 1st look too center but both are well shot
The sunbirds nesting are nice and this Chestnut munia is so cute:lovegrin:
overall well done men, keep it up.hopr to see more posting from u:thumbsup:
 

Some nice shots you've got there. I'm new to Birding so would apreciate some Birding tips like the best time to shoot, camera settings etc to start off.
