Canon 40D, 100-400 L lens at 400mm, f5.6, 1/1000th, Aperture Priority, tripod, some exposure adjustment in ACR, Noise Reduction of BG, sharpening, some burn/dodge.
Very, very nice. Beautiful composition, like the angle of the perch and its size compared to the bird, sharp but not too. BG is terrific.
Where is quote from?

Samuel Taylor Coleridge's unfinished poem 'Xanadu' :) Thanks! I felt it would have been better with the feet more in focus but was interested in what others thought too.
