Hello,

First of all really beautiful birds !!

You seems to have a lot of patience ^^ and really good photography skills these shots looks amazing based on the fact that you were not using a DSLR.
But I would like to know which camera your using the white balance looks great and exposure is nice as well.

Keep Up the good work I hope to see more photography from you in future.

Thank you for your kind words !

The camera is a Fujifilm HS30exr, which is a bridge cam. Actually one of the best bridge cams, albeit a generation old. It looks like a DSLR, but is smaller, has a fixed lens (24-600mm eq) and a small sensor (the crop factor is what enables it to get that huge range in focal length). It also got all the controls and settings as a DSLR, so you can heavily customize it.

All in all, I am quite happy with it, but sometimes I would like better control of DoF, and a little less noise indoors (bigger sensor, maybe m43 or aps-c), and be able to shoot indoors without the flash.
