The Cape white-eye (Zosterops virens) Eating a Delicious Berry: My Photogenic Friends

It seems that the Cape white-eye (Zosterops virens) bird friends make for the most artistic photographs. I just love to take photographs of them, and they come in flocks to the trees in the garden. At first, I thought they were very shy, but since starting to photograph these friends in the last year, they have become regulars in my posts. In any case, with the winter here in the Cape region, we have plenty of rain. The trees that carry berries are plentiful. The familiar sound or calling to the Cape white-eye bird friends always leave me grabbing for the camera. I have a special trick for photographing these friends: the tree they love so much is around a corning. Or in other words, I approach from around a corner so they do not know that I am there. Hence, today's lucky capture with a friend stealing a berry! So, please enjoy these beautiful and cute bird friends.

Thank you so much! I think I need to frame all the best ones I took over the year. Thanks for the great idea.
