1/500 sec at f7.1 ISO 400 minus .67 EV
Cropped very slightly
Processed in NX2

Lovely flight shot Ian. Are you sure its a Fieldfare? Looks more like a Mistle Thrush to me but maybe its just the light. A nice shot though. :wavey:

White moustache, dark tail and very grey head points to a feldfare for me, I don't think I've seen a flight shot of a fieldfare before now :confused: , nicely done

A very nice capture, I don't think I have ever seen a flight shot of a single fieldfare before either. Certainly not one as good as this.
