Description I've been waiting for quite a while to get to photograph these little birds but have never been succeeded in it. I've heard that these were seen in there and there but as I got to that place there wasn't been anything anymore. But in this morning I drove with my bicycle and there it was!

Because sun was just going up there weren't quite much light. Therefore I needed to boost ISO speed pretty much. But guess it's clean enough, anyway I don't even care because it was the first time when I was able to photograph these. Bird is European Robin (Erithacus rubecula, Punarinta). It was singing so beautifully that it must have been one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in my life.

Fullview is highly recommended.

I think it's a young robin. You managed the highISOs very well, the result is pretty good! Great shot.

Thank you. Yeah, I made some noise reduction to this photo but guess it came clean enough. Thanks.

Thanks. It's really nice to look at these afterwards and remember these moments. The whole days which I had freed from any work, studies etc. Then I could wake up really early in the morning and go to phototrips.
