hi ely' many thanks for the "well done" comment. i have'nt tried the upper and lower ends of the f stops and just simply follow the recommended f stop range f7-f8 as this produces a "sharper capture of image" i guess its name is derived from the prominent sound that the bird produces, sounds like "pirrik" or "tirrik". renoir

Blue-tailed Bee-eater (Merops philippinus Linnaeus 1776). “Tirik-tirik” in the dialect is relatively abundant starting in the month of October however, I did not noticed what month when these birds become less abundant. When these birds are in Naawan it usually appears in the late afternoon hovering from nowhere and swopping and catching insects on the mowed or flowed fields.
D5000 + Sigma 150-500mm, 500mm, ISO2000, 1/1000, f/7.1, +1.0EV WB Cloudy, Handheld, CS4
