This morning I had the chance to take my first bird photo with my new Canon 100-400L, amazing what a piece of fine glass.
And this is my photo, a Great Crested Flycatcher.
Thanks for looking.

Very nice shot here. I like the pose, composition is great, nice environment, color and exposure...all comes together very nicely. My only nit is your decision to give the 5D to hubby instead of the 20 D... .....;) ;)

Great shot ! As an owner of the 100-400 my advice is feed this monster plenty of light it will reward you over and over. Second point turn OFF IS when using a tripod! Enjoy.
