Just thought I would share a few bird shots from my trip , I have a big collection from my previous times up north so these are just a few from last week.

Very nice Mark

May I ask what camera / lens you use?

thanks

Thanks for the comments
They were taken with a Nikon D700 200-400f4 from
a small boat on Daintree river.

Frank this lens was a luxury and lent to me but I have equal
images taken with my 80-400 f5.6

Beautiful, beautiful images.

If I had to nitpick, and, I do, I find the flash detracts a bit from the overall impact of the images. But, the subjects are stunning in their own right.

Well done.
