On the plus side, a flash would have probably put a sparkle in the eye, which I always like to see with bird and wildlife shots. Again, nicely done.



thanks Jonathan.


I don't have a flash yet, all funds going towards a supertele. Not decided on which, I wish there was a 200-900mm f/3.2L IS USM lens that weighed like 1 pound.
