This Green Jay was photographed on the Cozad Ranch (Painted Bunting Heaven) with the Canon 800mm f/5.6L IS lens, the 1.4X II TC, and the EOS-1DMIII. ISO 500. Evaluative metering +2/3 stop: 1/100 sec. at f/11. Fill flash with Better Beamer at -1 1/3 stop.
If you are in South Texas you will want to pay a visit to the Cozad Ranch ASAP; we had as many as four male Painted Buntings on the set at one time. See the blog at www.birdsasart-blog.com for contact info and my SUV Songbird Trip reports.
Don't be shy; all comments welcome.
