Baby Blackbird

Photo by

While waiting to see if the Milford Road was open after the snow Tim & I filled in time at the Te Anau wildlife centre where the only "non-caged" wildlife was this baby blackbird sitting in the wet grass. So it was an opportunity to trial some exposures as I was trying to let go of the 400 ISO/Aperture priority automation I appear to have fallen trap to since I started photographing birds!
