[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A parrot decided to drop me a visit this morning as I was sitting in my garden for breakfast.
It's called Rose-Ringed Parakeet (Psittacula Krameri) and although it's not native to Israel (Believed to escape from captivity and brad in the wild), there are many species to be seen.

Gear - Canon 10D Body, Sigma 70-200 2.8 Lens, Tiffen UV Filter.

Hallo
I have a 300mm lens for my Nikon D50 which means that i actually have a 450, but i never manage to fill my frame with the subject as much i would like to. Isupose you have the same problem?
Congratulations for not oversaturating, many people that own cannon do that, not because they don't like the colors of their cameras but because they like the oversaturation generaly

This is nice too. check my snapshot of a parrot here in Tehran:
