New Holland Honeyeater feeding in a neighbors grevillea bush. Fast movers that dart about.

I realize this is a poor picture technically. I was shooting through my den window, which is very dirty. However, I thought it worth a try because the bluejay looked so dishevelled, mangy and comical. It had just disported itself in our bird bath and was fluffing up its feathers to dry off.

I've not posted in a while as the summers here in Dubai are horrid with the mercury hitting the high 40's every day, so I messed around with the AFMA settings for my 150-500, I popped out to the polo club and managed a few shots.
