Nice shot. Gotta love the bokah of the 400mm.

Thank you, gjl. The 400/5.6 is really a nice lens for birding.

Thank you, Duane. The light seems to have been just right to show off the wing feathers.

Bill,

That is a pretty shot of this Gull, the whites are just perfect and vibrant against the BG.

Thank you, Dan. I was just practicing BIF shots against a cluttered background and thought that this one turned out nicely.
