Greg, I think you're right: its a fiscal shrike. The big white band over the wings makes me a bit unsure. Birding is a new field to me. Collin Baxter should help us.

I need a camera with a good sensor to hang my 50-200, 70-300, Bigma and EC-14 on. The E-M5 has the sensor, but not the PDAF. So I am waiting for an E-7 or OMD Pro (with PDAF). My timeframe for a...

Yes, the Bigma is not the easiest lens to master. I sense it takes one's photography to a new level though. Guess I'll try to use somewhat higher shutter speeds in future. Thank you for advising...

Thank you for the comments. Sure, I will comply - missed the guideline about 5-6 shots per post. A bit overly enthusiastic probably.
