Bird photography is always a popular topic among outdoor photographers. The challenges presented in trying to get a good photograph of a bird though, are difficult to understate. Besides the skittish nature of the animal, problems with weather, wind, light and backgrounds always seem to throw themselves into your path. These recent images though show what can be done with a bit of skill and patience and why the subject of birds continues to be a favourite among photographers everywhere. Check out our further resources on bird photography at the end of the collection.

I’m really starting to get into bird photography now, having initially focused on mammals. I think the attraction is to see the details and movements which are too fast to take in with the naked eye. With a photo, you can really show so much more about a bird.
