I was about to trash this image in the recycle bin because the bird was so darn close that I failed to catch the whole image, part of the tail was cut. Anyway, upon closer inspection, saw that the image was quite sharp and decided to process it and see what will come out. So here goes nothing guys. Long-tailed Shrike, Paralaya Candaba, Sept. 11, 2009 50D + EF500, f6.3, 1/400, ISO 320, Manual Exposure, Handheld

It is very close, so close you can get the DNA of the bird. Heh heh heh. Well done Rey. Mabuhay.

Thanks a lot guys. ________________________________ This is so intimidating, Rey! I have to move backward to see it better! Ha ha ha! Congrats for setting a new thread in bird photography... BIRD MACRO! Actually Neon started the Bird Macro craze a long time ago. Unwittingly I apparently joined it with this image.
