I thought I would come home empty-handed but fortunately, I got a lifer today from Unibersidad para La Paz. 7D, 400mm f/5.6L, ISO 200, 1/1000s, Manual Exposure ISO 400, 1/6000s

Whoa! Great captures of a beautiful bird, Ariel! I can count at least 6 colors.
I really must visit Costa Rica soon. I'm going to California this May or June. Is it convenient to take a side trip to Costa Rica?

A technicolor parrot. What a good looking bird and you got the eyes shining. How far were you from the bird? Well done Ariel & Mabuhay.

Is it convenient to take a side trip to Costa Rica? Thanks Ramon. Rainy season starts by mid-April and goes on until November. There are still some birds to be seen but being wet season, weather is quite unpredictable and you'll never know when the rain will come. Let me know if I can be of help.

I'm still trying to learn how to shoot with Manual exposure. I lost some opportunities because I'm used to set my camera to AV priority and takes time for me to get used to the new exposure settings.
