Red-billed Starling - Pair (Sturnus sericeus)

Managed to knock off about 50 photos of this pair of which about 3 dozen were usable - except that I couldn't get both in focus - needed to zoom out a bit more.
Was taken at 160mm from about 12ft from behind my green mosquito netting.

Good shot guy, would have come out a tad better if your aperature was tighter.

Even though I shoot with a Canon, I'm still very impressed with the quality of photos being displayed by users of the D70.

Thanks Richard - appreciate yr feedback, am very new to taking photos & even newer to D70.
FYI was taken at 1/60 sec - F2.8 - photo was taken under a tree & in failing light with no flash from about 10-12' at 160mm - colour & brightness haven't been tweaked too much
