Excellent captures! How unfortunate for the bird but it is admirable in using the best of its resources in order to live. The 1DMk4 does give out very clean files even at 3200 ISO.

that bird is a survivor! With that kind of a bill one would think it won't survive long.

It is really wonderful to see how God makes things work out even with this handicap bird. The 1DMk4 is the best camera I have ever experienced . I wonder what Canon will come out with in the future.

However there is also more noise than usual. I used the filter of the APS CS5 to remove the noise and than blur the surroundings. Hope this helps you in your PP.

Excellent color rendition Thank you Clem. The lighting was adequate enough even if the sun was not yet out.

Thanks for sharing your great work sir Ely, this is a good material for inspiring our PWD brothers and sisters that in life, disability is not a hindrance to survival. Congrats!

Nice documentation of a deformed bird. Its story of survival could be heartbreaking. Looks like the lower beak was flattened. maybe it got away from a predator flower. some kind of venus sunbirdtrap perhaps

Wow! incredible captures Ely!! With ISO 3200 at f5.6 I could just imagine how dark the conditions were when you took the photos. Sad for the sunbird, I hope it's not a genetic defect that it can pass on to its eventual offspring. Looks like it is just some parasite that caused this deformity. The bird looks healthy and coping well just wondering how it will get its protein? must be from pollen only?

It may have fallen out of its nest when it was young or bitten by another bird that caused its beak to deform. Anyway it is nice to see it survive in spite of its deformities.

Christmas is just around the corner and you deserve something as good as this for yourself. Knowing how good you are in photography your pictures will even be better and easier to take because of the camera having two sets of Digic 4. It is possible that it can still catch insects with its beak and inner mouth. The bird looks very energetic and healthy. I am just happy to see that he can survive in spite of his handicap.
