Another shot from a very hot day around an old farm dam not far from home, a stick about 4 feet high stuck at an angle into the mud on the waters edge made a perch for the birds to land on prior to going in for a drink. Taken by concealing myself, somewhat uncomfortablywithin a thorn bush on the upper edge of the dam with a bit of camo cloth to hide camera and tripod.
Canon 7D + 500 f4 + 1.4 x TC.....700mm, f6.3, 1/125, ISO 250, no flash used, small crop, selective sharpen and slight reduction to backdrop { yes, higher ISO would produce faster shutter speeds, but I constantly struggle with my noise on my troublesome 7D }
