Dead Fledgling - Bromley, SE London
Can anyone positively identify this bird? I was found in my sister's garden in Bromley, dense detached/semi/terraced housing with 70ft gardens. I think it is a fledgling starling, I get them in my garden (South Essex) a lot. My siblings are convinced it is a woodpecker.- RedRoo

Flights of fancy.
Since setting out to photograph the garden birds in flight, I have only had the time for one session before today. What is more, I am away for another three weeks, so today was important for my learning and my confidence. The day stated badly, with lots of false triggers from the infra red...- Denny Woodthorpe

Hello. Signs of an imprinted bird?
Hello forum. 3 weeks ago I found a nestling spotless starling after it and it's two siblings fell out of their nest, which was in the wall of my house. The other 2 babies were dead. I estimate he was around 10 days old at the time. After putting him on a high place near the nest and waiting...- BertTheBird

More Flashers
I spent a good part of today pursuing my quest to capture the iridescent plumage of the starling. I think that the secret lies in the angle of the flash units in relation to the lens axis. I remember from my school days that “the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection”. So, if I...- Denny Woodthorpe

Iridescent Starlings.
I set myself the challenge of trying to show the iridescence in the plumage of a starling. I started by doing some research on how to capture the iridescence on humming birds, as I couldn’t find anything online about starlings. What I found out was that it is all down to the angle of the light...- Denny Woodthorpe

More about the flasher.
I have explained in a little detail how I have discovered that using HSS flash for my garden bird photography has allowed me to operate at high shutter speeds under any conditions. What I haven’t explained is exactly how I set it all up. I believe in making things easy for myself, so I operate...- Denny Woodthorpe

The Flasher.
In my last post, I indicated that I would explain more about how I use flash for my garden bird photography. First of all, I need to explain why I choose to use flash instead of available light. My camera, a Canon 60D is not very good when used at high ISO settings. Anything above 400 tends to...- Denny Woodthorpe

Getting there
Well, I have set up a feeding station at my static caravan. It is actually on the decking, only five feet from the lounge windows, but birds are using it already. There is even a solar powered fountain that gets plenty of use. There are goldfinches, greenfinches and chaffinches, robins, house...- Denny Woodthorpe
