Cape White-eye

BigAl

Some old ones that I've gotten around to and some new ones. These are really cute little guys, but it's really difficult to get them to stay still and pose.

Here on a Giant Strelitzia:







...and here some poor shots, but they were really enjoying themselves :barb

That sure is a bright white eye ring. Their name fits them.

Hi Al, Nice set, very cute little critters. I really like #3, excellent capture..

Good captures Al! Very cute birds. They are almost identical to the uguisu, or bush warbler in Japan. I have tried photographing them before with little success.

Thanks Stephen - it's amazing for such a small bird how your eye immediately picks up the eye ring!

Thanks Chris! They really are cute, but never stop for an instant - makes it very tricky to get a pic of them. You need you biggest lens, but they don't give a chance to use your support systems

Thanks Mike. Size and habits of the Japanese Bush Warbler look to be the same as these guys - so I know what you're referring to!

Thanks Jeff! Yip, you don't need a super high IQ to figure out where the name came from
