Nikon D850, Nikon 500mm F5.6 pf
ISO 800, 1/1250s, F6.3

This little guy may look calm but he was bouncing from branch to branch at a rapid pace. I was fortunate to get a few good images out of well over 100 in rapid succession.

A very nice image of a species that is rarely still for a photo.( Good portrayal of the golden crown).

He looks like a fuzzy bouncing ball. Like the detail in his feathers.

Beautiful image! Love the composition and the details and background are excellent. One small suggestion would be removing the small out of focus branch in the upper left corner.

A well-composed image with almost perfect placement within the frame, Warren!

Excellent shot Warren. These look the spitting image of our Gold Crests, who are busy, busy, busy.

They must be very close relatives.  Busy, busy, busy.  They never seem to stay still !!

A really sweet view of this little beauty with lovely pose (in between the rapid bouncing) and excellent detail, Warren.
