Congratulations, Ely! You already made it 3 times in four weeks! I'm really impressed with your work and everytime I logged in here, I always look forward to the pictures you posts. This is indeed a very impressive capture and with great details.

Thank you for the honor. I am so fortunate to have the chance for this encounter. When I saw the bird my setting were set for a shaded area. After several shots I realized that and changed my settings accordingly. Fortunately the bird was busy sun bathing so I had the opportunity to take more pictures. But he did not stay long and moved deeper into the trees. Believe me, luck plays a big part. Thank you Romy and Ariel. I like to live up to your expectations but so many factors has to be present to get something like this. Salamat po. Mabuhay.
