wow! a nice colourful bird...I am happy to know that Sweden does have some nice birds as I will be coming to Umea this year for a two year postdoctoral study...I plan to shift to Canon from Nikon and so I was browsing dpreview for opinions on 300f4 vs 400 f5.6 when i saw ur post and came here...nice work and raises my hopes from 400mm f5.6.
BTW where are u located in Sweden...
Do visit my gallery (I also have some pics of Umea from my last visit) www.flickr.com/photos/rahulgaur
