Yes it is, a female. It has the characteristic 'tack' marking at the top of the abdomen that marks it as a migrant hawker. Nice shot.

Lovely shot Brian, have you found the focusing better on the 400 over the 350?

Thanks Alby. I found the 400D to be a bit sharper, that may be the extra resolution, the larger screen helps with playback as well.
All in all I like the 400D more.
