Hi All,

This picture is not created in photoshop.
If you take the time and have the patience sometimes the birds will allow you to get realy close...
At some point I could not get the camera to focus anymore because I was within 3,5 meters distance.
Which is the min focus distance for this lens.

Please look at below links to see some of the results of this close encounter.
