Wryneck


Wryneck .........Jynx torquilla
Photographed at St Levan.
The Wryneck was two foot into a thicket so getting a clean shot was impossible.
My lens *hunted* and I had to resort to manual focus which I am not at all confident with.
The result is a noisy record shot of a bird Angie and myself set out to see ...that ended up successful.
