North Hokkaido Summer 2017 #6


Some more shots of the very photogenic Rubythroats from the end of June................


The males were constantly bringing food to the nests hidden in the grass............


The gentle midsummer light (it was overcast most days) and soft green backgrounds suit photos of this species perfectly.........










Even with poor light and busier backgrounds they still look OK..............

  2. You have so many great pictures you'll be able to illustrate a monograph on this species!
