Sometimes warblers don't care how close you are. This one was probably ten feet away. They are truly smol, and I like to crop my photos. Honduras, April 2023

Sometimes I don't even know what I'm photographing. This is a male blue-black grassquit doing a "I'm sexy" dance as he calls.

It might not be obvious, but these sparkling-tailed hummingbirds are actually smaller than some big beetles. When they're flying past, it's hard to believe that they're actually birds. Honduras, June 2022

Hi there. I unfortunately ran out of smol criminals of my own to post here, so I figured I would help my fellow birb law enforcement agents to get more work done, with helpful tutorials from the internet. The videos are not mine. I like that photographer a *lot* and he is single-handedly responsible for that one time I captured an actually good picture of a birb. He's good at what he does. He loves what he does. He does NOT yell at the viewer (which is appreciated, ISO settings do not need to be discussed at a decibel volume equal to said iso settings). He has excellent underhanded tricks to get smol criminals to commit crimes on camera. His pictures are lovely. Check it out. Do what he does. Then post your results here so I can enjoy them, thank you very much, byyyye :D

Wavre, Belgium, today ♥ I *knew* there were chaffinches in town, I hear their calls on the regular, but I hadn't managed to see one up close yet.
Taken near my workplace in Belgium a few years ago. I still love this birb.
