Do you know their age ??
Not exactly, but the breeder said they were "very young" when I got them in October.

It is a Canon EOS with a 100 mm macro lens. The camera was about 2 feet away from the birds, outside the cage. The depth of field is shallow, but you can capture detail that you would never see with these little birds that flit around whenever you come near!
