Cetti's Warbler
These chaps normally prefer to call from dense undergrowth, and the only photo I had of one before was the back end of one disappearing into a bush. I spent a few hours with this one yesterday and managed to get this, unfortunately it's still a crop from landscape to portrait.

Techs:
D2X
600 f/4 +1.4 TC
1/320 sec @ f/6.3
ISO 400
Mounted on a tripod
PP in Lightroom and resized for web in CS2

Wow - fine image of a bird that (in my experience) is hard to see let alone get a nice clean image of,
