Really nice shot. Many of us don't realize just how pretty starlings are until they are seen up close.

Agreed, stunning irredescense, just a shame they are such vagrant pests.

Amazingly beautiful. Fascinating ducks
Incredible photos. Love the head shot, so clear and sharp and such an appealing look on its face.

A very under rated bird.

Exceptionally nice shot, Sidknee. A sharp image, with that wonderful background, really makes the bird stand out beautifully.

Wonderful shots, Shalu. Your getting down on the ground, and shooting low level, really worked well here. Great detail in the close-up shot.

Robert, I see you’re really enjoying the 500 PF :)

Matt it doesn't hurt me :)
The 400DOii a couple of weeks ago gave me a nasty crick in the neck :(
