So just sorrow then! 
Was sat in my car and was reading Chris Gomeral's book when this guy landed on the other side of the car park. Got one shot before he flew off.
800mm

This magpie with it's colour, focus and details is quite good. Well done! Canon 5D + Canon 20D + Canon EOS 300

Funnilty enough I'd just read in Chris Gomersal's book that when you shot a black and white bird you should take a spot meter off the white and ignore the black. I didn't have time to do that so just lucked out I guess. Damian Waters
