wild birds

























































































































above are some pictures of the wild peregrines in derby, taken throughout the last 6 months or so. hope you enjoy, although these pictures were taken before the ones below using a different camera, i think they are of decent quality, although not as good as the ones of colins birds.
talking of which, as many of you are aware colin has been letting me photograph his peregrines throughout their training. and also at times letting me fly one from the fist. this was a first for me, and to be honest i was quite nervious to start with incase i hurt the bird in any way. This did not stop me though and i am pleased to say i have managed to fly these amazing birds. the photos of colins birds were taken with a canon 400d with a Tamron, 70 - 300mm f4 -5.6 lense. but i am going to be using a bigger lense as soon as my knee is better. so hopefully the pictures will get better and better.
