My lens and body are still at Canon service, leaving me featherless for the next couple of days. Meanwhile here's another BCNH shot (not again) carrying a twig as it approaches a tree where its nest is built.

Black-crowned Night Heron (Nycticorax nycticorax)
Edu's Swamp, Valenzuela, Metro Manila

40D, 400/5.6 L, ISO 640, f/5.6, 1/2000 sec, manual exposure, handheld, full frame, slightly extended canvas upwards and to the right
