A Nice Pair Of ****

By albi  
Springs to mind after watching the new Ephotozine TV.... Lol... Sorry, couldn't resist.

Taken today at my feeders, I was hoping for the Robin on the shovel handle but I wasn't happy with the shots. I've got about 6 Robins in the area but they're always fighting, so a shot of one in a relaxed pose is near on impossible.

1/320 @ F11 EC-2/3 ISO 250

Thanks for looking.

Fantastic shot Albi, did you redo the bg or is it natural, has a hue round the tits.
Given me an idea at our feeders now.
Brilliant capture

This is straight out of the camera Doghouse but funny you should say that, the Mrs said it didn't look real too. I think it's due to the Great Tit, there's some light on top of it's black cap and the slight bit of yellow showing to the left of it's breast ( no pun intended... Snigger ) gives it the look of being pasted on....

Thanks for the comments and votes everyone...

LoL I've always tried to resist such a comment
as your title, but it does raise a 'carry on'
type titter Wink
Actually, unusual to have a pic of the two types
of tit together like that especially on a shovel handle.
Super, well done.
