Read in a book that this is a migratory bird & am lucky that it's favourite hunting ground is at a small garden in front of a neighbouring block.

All you birding sifus out there, 请你多多指教。

Quite well captured.  Did you do any image editing?  It seems to lack contrast and color not saturated enough. I think weather not so good.

You're right about the weather  Very Good. The last shot was taken with dark clouds overhead & I had to use the speedlite as the main light source. I can't boost the contrast as it will darken the eyes too much to be seen clearly.

Will try to adjust the saturation to add more punch.  Okay

Ya. It was about 10 to 15 metres away most of the time & so long as i keep a "respectable distance", it doesn't mind my presence.

Hi there,

some of the pics are re-edited & uploaded + some new pics. Are they better in terms of contrast & colours are a tad too saturated.










Unfortunately, still can't even get a flying shot  mad

I am no expert, but these shots look better. Smiley
