Heres what I found…..

BBC Springwatch inspired – Wild bird photos

Inspired by the BBC Springwatch program i went out hunting for a suitable location to take some close up pictures of birds in their natural state. (opposed to feeding tables).
I found my self perched on a river bank hidden behind braches and tall grasses, I waited for about 2 hours perfectly still and after a steady stream of dog walkers and cyclists had stopped coming by the birds began to settle, some landing on branches in front of me only 2 ft away, but to close to photograph without scaring off.

As with most types of photography there is some skills involved in catching the right moments, and its not as easy as they make it look on the television.

Here is what I managed to capture through my lens.
