Nice background and IQ, always nice to have a smaller perch with birds so you can see more of them but some times you take what you can get.

Sharp with a nice head angle and pose. As Stan noted, the huge perch is less than ideal in part because it obstructs our view of the bird. As posted a crop from the top to 3X2 and lightening only the face would improve it.

Art Bhai, didn't know you are familiar with Hindi words! Cool! I will be visiting Florida in early 2013, will try to join one of your iPTs :-) and it will be an honor to meet you!
I had started a thread on choosing the 300 2.8 vs 500 f4, wonder what you might suggest?
Shukriya(thank you)

Shoot me a link to the post and I will respond. You can check out the IPT schedule here. SW FLA is set for FEB 16-21, 2013. If you become a BPN member I would be glad to offer you the $300 member's IPT discount. The few Indian words that I learned I have learned from my many Indian friends on BPN. Except for shukriya. I learned that in my favorite Indian restaurant in St. Pete. I love good Indian food!
