In a busy car park at the Highland Wildlife Park in the Cairngorms, sits an oystercatcher on her eggs.
Her ‘nest’ is just a scrape in the ground – with a convenient stone for her to rest her beak against.
There were cars coming in and out and she never moved – just concentrated on the important job she was doing.

1/500 second at f7.1 Nikon D7000 with 70-300mm lens at full stretch.
Short lovely story with beautiful imagery attached. I contemplated purchasing the D7000 but opted for the D5200. I’ve never had a DSLR so this seemed to be a great starter for me.

I have the lens that came with it. I purchased the kit. I’ve seen some really cool ones though. The one I have is more than fine-for now. I want something that can capture the finest detail. Any suggestions?

I don’t really have a suggestion. The 18-55mm kit lens is very good.
