DOF @ 1.8 is really narrow with this lens..:love: And the bokeh is out of this world..:nuts:

I can't quite make out all of the house and garden reflected in his eye - can you post a sharper version ?

That is incredible! You can even see the new feathers coming in! I know which house to rob if I want nice kit ;) Of course it was all lens and had nothing to do with the expert hand taking the pic.

Oh yeah, don't worry :) I know it's easy to forget smileys and that and besides, we know you enough to know of your intent ;)

Absolute cracker of a shot. :thumbs:

(try to see if you can get him on a twig/branch adjoined to your birdtable.
It does detract from a brilliant shot somewhat to see all the peanuts and lumps of bread in the foreground ;) )

Make it your next target, Tim! :)
