Description
Found this little yellowhammer (right name in english ?) on a walk through forest. Have seen them many times before but could never capture one of those shy birds like this time.
In my language it's called "Goldammer".
[EOS350d, Sigma 170-500mm @500mm, f5.6, ISO800, mf]
Thanks for your interest !

superbe prise de vue
Yes Chris, a yellowhammer. Very nice shot, though to make it perfect you might clone out the leaf in the foreground? Just my opinion! Regards, Steve.
very nicely done !
Beautiful capture! Birds are sure hard to capture!
at Steve: Had this in my mind, but thought that it would add more depth to the pic this way...Other opinions ?
Fantastic composition and capture ! Wonderful colors and depth ! Excellent work !!! V
This is a really brilliant capture - well done! Very difficult to get such excellent photos of birds like these. V
Beautifull!!!

yes this is a lovely little yellowhammer.. the play of light through the leaves is beautiful... and this capture is fantastic.. there is no rehearsal in wildlife photography superbbb massive vote :)))...)))))))))))))))))))
Superb capture - works really well with the background and leaf :)
Beautiful and lovely photo,excellent capture!!!***
Yep, the leaf is a bit disturbing - to me. Also the bird seems to be a tiny bit out of focus, compared to the twig he's standing on? Still .. wonderful work :) Sorry for nagging ...
Sometimes, one has to take chances in getting the shot!...can never practise these....imo, fine shot and congrats ;)
Great shot.
Excellent shot and lighting, agree that the leaf is bit distracting. But can be easily fixed. What matters is that the shot is exposed properly and contrasts came out good through the lens.
Ciao Chris. A really lovely little bird, and with a wonderful name too ! I love this bird, so colourful, not easy to see, and less to photographed ! Great shot again.
excellent photography!!!done well to capture this scene, they're too quick for me to snap :)
wonderful composition... such great color... the almost matching leaf really adds something. Excellent shot.
Very nice shot. the leaves accent the bird or the bird accents the leaves one of the two! ;) Vote
Freue mich, mal wieder einen Piepmatz in Deiner Galerie zu sehen. Ich finde, Du hast ihn sehr gut getroffen, was bei diesen flinken Gesellen eine gro Leistung ist. Bravo, Chris!!!
Very elegant in its surrounding!
Hallo Herle, ser Vogel, das Blatt kommt toll rauss.
A beautiful bird. I like the leaf there as is shows that the bird and the foliage are similar in color. A perfect camouflage. A beautiful photo.
A most beautiful capture of this shy cutie! Not an easy shot as they are pretty quick!
So stunning ... the birds you manage to capture so beautifully. I've never seen a bird like this before .. ever. It's gorgeous!
Da hast aber einen schen Piepmatz. fett ablach, sorry ich konnte nicht anders Nee, jetzt mal Spabeiseite. Den hast wirklich gut getroffen und mir geflt das bild im Vordergrund wg. der besagten Tiefe, sehr gut. Der Lichteinfall gibt dem Gefieder ein sche Kontur. Da bin ich doch mal ganz DE_VOTe. LOL!!!
