Thanks, Tonji.
I myself was very surprised to see that all birds came out ok.
The shot is full frame and no PP. I wish I have the brains, time and
patience to do PP. I guess I am more gifted with my visual sense than common sense...aaah, my eyes are failing, too, but can still see beauty most of the time.
Bless the Lord, oh my sight. tely:D

A monopod is not really that friendly for shots of this range. The skill level has compensated well to get it as clear as this. Congrats telyds!!!
