Winter Wren - Gjerdesmett - Troglodytes troglodytes
Gärdsmyg - Gærdesmutte - Peukaloinen
A young Winter Wren - so much easier to photgraph with a DSLR!
Winter Wren are a common species where I live, but taking pictures of them using digiscoping equipment is far from easy. Wrens are continuously on the move and are hard to follow using a cumbersome telescope. The shutter lag on my digital camera is woefully long - adding to the challenge of photographing this delightful species. Of around 90 pictures taken these are a few of the salvageable ones.....
