I used to have 18-200, and i had a hard time getting a closer shot with birds. now with tamron 150-600. it's much easier. thou i still have to hide sometimes so as not to spooke the birds.
There are 2 munias in the park i shot. This one and the chestnut munia. also java sparrow. i did saw one. but very rarely.
Thanks and enjoy the photos. :)
Beautiful series.
Thank You
Hi @digitalis... That is a pretty bird! Attractive breast pattern..
Lol sorry that sounds funny but beautiful photos
Lol... I know right.... ;)
Lol
Yeah. it's like a fish scales pattern.
Very attractive!
Excellent photos. Love that you got them while feeding on the seeds.
Thanks. actually that is the best time to shot them. i can get near when they are feeding. :) my only problem is the grass blocking the shot :(
Great shot, of a beautiful bird
I know right beautiful photos

I do love seeing your bird photos! Your birds are so different from the ones we see. Great photos, as always.
Hiho Melinda. you meant my old bird shot? maybe bec. i used to shot with 18-200mm. or maybe its endemic to philippines or asia. :)
It is not a bird we see in the USA. It is quite beautiful.
Beautiful photos
Thank You
No problem
It is so sad that this is not seen in Malaysia in the wild these days.
