Candaba Swamp - January 4, 2005

Fatbirder's Top 1000 Birding Websites

I went back to Candaba Swamp to check the Northern Pintails. I was not disappointed - the beautiful migrant duck made a brief but sweet appearance...;-)

The 20D + 400 5.6L + Tamron 1.4x TC continues to impress me. All the pics in this trip were taken with the 560 mm f/8 combo, including the flying birds (AI Servo).
