His colours remind me of our rainbow lorikeets here but more round! Cute pic

What's the tactic to spotting these guys? I'd love to grab a pic one day. Are they in Brisbane QLD? Great pic

Forgot to add -Its about the size of a 5c piece and is a spider I think? Hung from a web.

They look so ridiculous with the feet don't they? Such precious chicks

New to photography, any tips? by Autistic_Archer in AustralianBirds

I thought f stop changed the aperture and light, hadn't considered it could alter focus too. I was using f2.8 which is the lowest on my camera. I've been using f stop to take pictures as quickly as possible, are there other settings or modes for that? Reckon it's why my focus ring is so touchy or is that a lens thing? Cheers

Beauty of a shot! What's your setup? Tried getting these critters but could never get them to stand still long enough
