Sometimes something happens that you know you cannot record satisfactorily with a camera, not with today's technology nor tomorrow's although perhaps sometime. At the end of a wildlife walk, car in sight, I heard a Goldcrest. Suddenly there were three fighting on the ground very close. It soon became just two birds - I guess the loser flew off. The two birds began courting. It was full of agitated action and posturing with the crests showing more than not. No light, on the wrong side of the tree and very messy backdrop but we made an effort. Technically its not a great picture but I will still have it as a memory of something I have never seen before - a little gold dust in the bottom of the pan today. Birds never cease to be interesting. Cheers. |
