139 - Scaly Thrush

Doi Ang Khang, northern Thailand

A beautiful bird with a very cute way of moving around. It was looking for food along the stream.

It was not much light under the trees. I noticed that the bird was quite still for a couple of seconds so I switched to use mirror lookup and managed to get a decent capture at 1/4s! The IS of the EF500 was used too, which I shouldn't have. Under 1/40s it's better to switch IS off.
