WE make no excuses for winging this week’s Camera Club spread.

All seven pictures feature our feathered friends - and each is a brilliantly-captured, striking image.

From a peacock strutting its stuff to birds feeding, bathing and nesting, every one is a feather in the cap for those behind the camera.

Would you like to join our club? Just search for Gazette Camera Club on Facebook.
