Congratulation Apache Rey. You were able to scalp this one into your CF card. We all know how challenging it is to capture this skittish Tailorbird. Mabuhay.

Thanks a lot Ely. Yes it was quite a challenge but it's no match to the Luzon Bush Warbler wherein we almost gave up.  |

Cool capture and excellent technique! Tailorbirds move at such a high speed - I have a few shots of the common tailorbird in Thailand - it was so challenging to capture well. Well done!

Rey ... Congratulation... I love the sharpness on the birds eye and the 1/250 sec blur on the moving tail. This make the your capture dynamic. Bravo !
