The DOF was created by using my 200mm lens, shot from 8 feet away with the green trees in the background. This was taken from my old bird studio a few years ago.

I wonder what kind of sounds a cow bird makes? Do I really want to know? LOL.. Another gorgeous shot from your studio.

Very nicely captured maestro, I love all birds equally they don't have to be colourful for me to appreciate them.

This one probably gets lost among the starlings, black birds and such Eggz. I think they call them Cow Birds because the get in over their heads in a cow-patty. Hence the color of the head.

Such a wonderful shot.
