Went out for shore birds, this bird pass very near (at the time was using 600 +1.4 TC III), i liked the shot it came out but it was at very close range, in post processing I added canvas and top wing (right wing) two feathers (2nd and 3rd) were cut, so they were also constructed:

Great shot, Akhan. We have what are known as black-billed magpies around here and they look remarkably similar. I have yet to get as good a shot of one as you have here, however. Well done.
