Superb Fairy-wren (Malurus cyaneus)

Recently I started shooting birds around my area and really enjoyed the experience, so I purchased a dedicated lens for this purpose. First time out with Sony 200-600mm G lens on my A6400, It was a bit late on the day, the sun was setting but I managed to get a pic of this beautiful lil guy.

Shot @600mm

Wow, the colours on this beauty are sublime so very well captured and spotted.

Thanks Greg. They're a beautiful species and hope to capture a nice shot of a female one in the near future. But the males have the beautiful blue colors.

The lights looks so golden and wonderful as well as the bird itself. So lovely and well spotted!
