Well not as good as Nate's but it's my best so far, I especially don't like the background but it's interesting to see it's tongue

JJ, that is great timing and capture. I agree that the background is a little busy, but hey, you sometimes take it as it comes.

Here's my best bird shot so far. I've realized that a 300mm + 2x converter is much, much softer than I had hoped for, and I think I'll soon be upgrading to a 500mm f/4L IS for birding use. Wondering if I should go for the new version II of the 500L (for extra sharpness and weight savings) or just buy one of the current ones to save some cash...
Nice capture RazorTM!, you took this one with the 2X TC? looks pretty sharp to me. I like the pose and the wing position very much.
