These are great, color, sharp. You are leaveing out the details!

70-200, 300, did you attach your TC?

All of the shots I took today (sans peacock were through mesh fences!! I was able to focus on animals far enough away and you can't even tell there was caging in between.

I mostly used the zoom lens. Here is one I took with the 300mm prime and 1.4x extender. This guy was FAR away!

I enjoyed them very much. I'm guessing the ugly bird was with the 300 + 1.4 TC, exif says it was 420 mm, F5.6, 1/100, iso 125?

Here is one from my Saturday morning outting to "snap gardens", it is a "wild" fly, no bars in this garden.

135L 2.0 with 2x TC
1/5000
F4.0
ISO 800

kwajo, Great shots. But for the good of the thread, keep it down to one per day.

sorry about that, like I said, I couldn't decide. ummm, can I be forgiven this one time since I think this is my first post in the thread, meaning I missed several days? 😛

Are the butterflies feeding on salt/drinking/breeding?

Nice pic.
 
they were mating, but I tried to avoid posting the photos that show them doing that, I didn't want to get people too excited 😉
 
I'm sorry, but I read the rules and didn't see any rule against animal sex.

Nice,

This would have made a great one in the Contrast Thread too.
 
Street Chicken Vendor/Butcher in Pakistan

Here's one picture from a recent trip to Pakistan. Taken with a Canon 5MP camera from a car... The guy is de-feathering a chicken, and this is common place in Pakistan to sell chickens in this way. A bit eerie, but an interesting snap.

Any comments appreciated.
