Hooded Oriole on Wire

San Francisco, CA

I've not had much luck photographing hooded orioles as they live high
in palms and San Francisco's windy climate makes them a moving target.
So I settled for one closer to the ground and on a more stable electrical wire.
P.S. the EXIF data is incorrect...the actual focal length was 700mm and the date, 7/07.

Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 500mm f/4L IS USM ,Canon EF 1.4x Extender
1/160s f/9.0 at 700mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
