<\/p>\nSomething a little different from me.<\/p>\n

1\/6400, f\/6.3, ISO 1600, Canon R5, Canon EF500mm f\/4L IS II USM + 1.4 tc, not baited, set up or called in<\/em><\/p>\n Ten days ago I made a concerted effort to capture this female (females do most of the nest building) House Wren as she was running across a rusty pipe with nesting material and this time I actually succeeded. I tried a bunch of times but these little birds run in fits and starts and they’re so darn fast she was usually out, or partially out, of frame when I pressed my shutter button. Either that or I didn’t have enough room in front of her for a composition I liked.<\/p>\n But this time I timed it just right and caught her in a running pose that makes me smile, which isn’t all that easy to do these days. The only thing I’d have liked better is if she’d tripped on the nesting material and I captured her doing a face plant on the pipe.<\/p>\n Actually, that sounds a little cruel so I’m glad she didn’t trip. But looking at the photo I can imagine it.<\/p>\n Ron<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Something a little different from me.<\/p>\n
