Hi to all

Yesterday's visit to my favorite farm provided the following results. No colourful birds are seen here this time of the year.
Grey Shrike
Isabelline Wheatear (the same bird I photographed in my last visit to the farm, the bird flew and landed next to me)
Fufous-tailed Scrub Robin (just a little blurry on the beak)
Male & Female Namaqua Dove, they spend the summer here. (Namaqua is a region in South African)
Male & Female Black-crowned Sparrow Lark
Juvenile Bird not too sure what it is, maybe a Hoppoe Lark
Hoopoe Lark

Excellent series John. Only the 2nd shot has the exif but I was surprised at 1/100s F8.0 at 1000mm. Surely the heat will cause some distortion at this focal length and it would be better to get a faster shutter speed, or am I wrong?

Hi Gautam Thanks

Hi Kevin, something has gone wrong, I have recently upgraded to PS Elements 10 I need to check why most of my EXIF info is missing. But in fact the photos I posted did have some file info. I have just posted a couple on my webpage to test.
Please check the link
_S0F9013ed_resize.jpg photo - John Thompson photos at pbase.com

When editing the shot of the wheatear I didnt apply a curves adjustment and as you say some info is still there. Strange.

When I check the file info on Canon DPP the full EXIF info is given

BTW I normally shoot at 1/1500 sec plus. The Wheatear landed near to me when I was driving through some trees, it was dark, Has I had already photographed the same bird last week I took a couple of quick snap shots with the camera setting I had used outside in the bright sunlight.

The perky tailed scrub robin is my favorite of this well captured bunch. Reason is because of it's perky tail!

Your shots are always tack sharp with great color rendition. I don't get over here often, but enjoy the shots when I do. Very nice work John
