Grey Jungle Fowl

[RAM MALLYA]

Finally could manage a decent shot of this very shy bird . This is a full frame shot so could not move the bird from the center . There is some motion blur on the head as this bird was crossing the road and about to take off .

Shutter speed 1/800
Aperture F/5.6
ISO 640
Lens 600MM L IS USM +1.4x
Camera body 1D Mark II N
Hand held
C&C welcome

Ram,

The repost is much better, I had no idea there were two (at least) types of Hungle Fowl, thanks for pointing it out. They certainly are difficult to find sttod still

Love the low angle and pose. I feel you could bring out more detail in the darks.

Ram, I like that last repost (frame #5) - excellent recovery of the details. This bird's colors are quite wonderful. Nice and sharp.
