budgie – Ciaran Buckley Photography

For the last few months I’ve been trying to get out into nature and move as silently as possible so that I can get some decent pictures of birds. Compared to my previous post I made about birds I think these pictures are of a higher standard, I hope you enjoy them.

Not sure what this bird is.

It turns out that Robins are pretty comfortable in front of the camera and enjoy having their picture taken.

Seagulls are an interesting bunch, I always think that if they could speak they would hassle you for cigarettes.

The notoriously camera shy seagull turns his back on me.

A flock of gulls.

I’ll take you under my wing(quite literally) and teach you to be a fully fledged member of seagull society.

I never knew starlings would be so so photogenic, I was really happy with how the last starling picture turned out.

I really hope you get as much enjoyment out of looking at these pictures as I got out of taking them, well anyways that is enough rambling out of me so let me know what you think in the comments.

Also I’ve gotten quite lazy with posting to the blog recently so I’ll do my best to get the thumb out, keep it out and post more regularly.

Peace and Love,

The Great Hairy One.

If you are still reading this fair play to you, I was going to put the full set of lyrics to that song but I don’t think anybody wants that. So if you haven’t guessed by now today lesson is being brought to you by the letter B for bird.
