I found this guy on the side of the road feeding. Shot with a 100-400mm L.

Wow, talk about focus bang on the eye. Well done indeed.

Shame about the out of focus 'thingy' in the FG but hey, if we got a perfect image every time it'd get boring, eh ?!! ;)

Yes, I was in my car when I shot it but the out of focus area on the left is limbs, plants, etc., not part of the car. I tried getting out of the car to shoot him/them but everytime he/they walked away. This was the only way to get a shot of him without him scooting off.

Great shot. Taking a quick shot before the bird decides to vacate the premises does not always leave one the time to clear the whole image.

Me, I would have probably caused an acident, driven off the side of the road and killed the damn bird.:lol:


just a few of my thoughts...
