Great rule of thirds (which I am trying to learn) and a beautiful bird. We don't often see birds from other continents. I am from North America. Thank you !

Hi Robbie I was admiring your work and I came across the Black Dronogo. I can tell a lot of people committed and voted but for some reason I'm unable to view it. Please let me know if it's on your page or if it's a tech issue on my end. Thank you. And as always great Job!

Thanks much Debbie, I think it must be a tech issue with your browser as I am able to see...

Ultimate

Excellent photo Robbie. I live in Thailand and we have a lot of Black Drongos around my home, but I haven't been able to capture a beautiful photo like this. They won't let me get close enough even with my 500mm lens. This photo is exceptional. I hope I can come close to this someday.
