Very nice shots!

Very nice pics! Subjects are clearly in focus without distracting background, which, in each case, superbly accentuates the birds. Nicely done. What equipment did you use to capture these?

Very nice series, the female cardinal is in another class.

thanks. the cardinal and swallows were taken with the mkII+ 500 f4 and all the rest were taken with the 100-400 (i still think that i got a super copy of this lens)

Very nisce Snir. The cardinal looks really nice, and the swallows.

Excellent and well captured images Snir.

Thanks Mitch and Reyno

Oh man! Gorgeous! Great shots!

Oh gosh Snir, everyone of these should be framed. I love them

thanks Lisa and Scott. while we are at it, can you give me some feedback on the IR shot that i posted (here in the bird forum)?

A very nice set here with the Cardinal getting most of my attention...super details and BG. Now the 3rd image is quite the smile maker as well and the low personal angle really works nicely here.

thanks Gary. i am happy with the cardinal shot because all of my shots of them before are all terrible.
