If i were to do this shot again this would be my setting

- ISO 5,000
- f/5.6
- 1/640

And step to my left or right to get a less busy background.

Thank you

These are really two very nice shots, Richard. However, you have 3 Spur-winged lapwings in your first photo. The Canon Digital Photography Forums (Birds in Pairs) law only allows you to have two birds in a given photo. Series fines and other stiff penalties can result when these written in stone laws are broken. I felt it my duty to inform you of this serious infraction. :-P ;-)a :lol:

Aww OK. But hey have a really good prison there in Tasmania. It's called Port Arthur. Even has a cool (and dark) solitary confinement cell!
