Just got home from Oahu and I've had a chance to process about 5% of the eleven-hundred images I took there. :) But this one stood out for me:

Canon EOS 40D ,Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM
1/640s f/4.0 at 200.0mm iso200

Thanks guys, yes, that's the Brazilian Cardinal. They were everywhere, and not very skittish at all. There were a number of other birds in abundance, but they were so flighty you could barely get your eye to the eyepiece before they were gone.

I did manage to get this one as well, which I thought was a real interesting bird:
