Oh I can imagine, I have a hard time getting decent pictures of them.Still fun to try though!
Thanks Ashley! These little guys were on pretty much every island. Most of the Galapagos is fairly arid so there isn't much cover so we were able to get a few decent shots of the warblers & finches - though these were a bit of a challenge as they don't stay still!
Pretty!! Is it common for these guys to be on the beach out in the open?
Thanks Kranti!
so.... cuteee.....
