This passed weekend we had rented a cottage in the East Gippsland of Vic Aus. It was a beautiful cabin that had a bird feeder on the front lawn along with a old tree for the birds to use as a perch. We had lots of different birds visit the feeder and I spent a couple hours each morning taking pictures from the deck. At one point we had 22 cockatoo's at the feeder. I got at least 2 dozen pictures I can finally say I am very proud of.
I posted this pictures because I can't figure out what type of bird it is....Its hard to search for birds when just having a picture for reference.
This is also the first time I've been very impressed with what the Tamron lens can do when using a tripod and having a decent amount of light to work with. I never thought I would get pictures this sharp at the longer end of the zoom.
Canon 60D, Tamron 150-600 @ 552mm f8.0 1/250, ISO 800 with a tripod.
Adjustments in LR, minor crop.
