You have documented some very nice birds!

Puffin is what I love most! Though I have never seen one in real life...but their colourful beak and innocent look is really amazing! Grin

Hi Joshua,

This is a very good shot! My suggestion is to frame the bird to the right, as the bird's head is facing to the left (from right to left) so in general viewer would like to see more on the left...or naturally view from right to left. Do you have a full frame of the bird with reflection on the water? I can see a perfect reflection of the bird's legs at the bottom, I think it would compose a very nice photo if you get a perfect reflection of it Smiley

Olive-backed Sunbird from Malaysia, quite popular and lovely targets for many photographers especially around June during the mating season, where got to see them feeding their youngs   Smiley

Spot focus,

Love the picture of the Rosellas I used to have a breeding pair of Crimson Rosellas - beautiful birds.
