    Default Starling bath time at Tilehurst

    A little bit of discussion, heavy duty bathing and a Sparrow's balancing act.

    These were all taken using my new 2.4Ghz Phottix Plato wireless remote. Set up the tripod and camera in the back garden and whilst watching the bird bath on my IP camera, used the remote to take the pictures. The remote has two way communication and can confirm when the camera is focussed, will do a review with photos when I've had a further play.

    I love the 'wet-look'.. and what the hell is the one-leg balancing act all about

    Those are some great shots.
