My main birding lens is Canon 400mm f4 couple with taped pins Tamron 1.4x teleconverter (TC). With that combination, I have only one active focusing point (the periphery), so most of my shots are with tripod. With the arrival of
migrant bird, I tried shooting bird in flight by taking off the TC. Oh, I really enjoyed the quick nine AF points for handheld shot.
This shrike is a few sample of hand held shot.
Brown Shrike (Lanius cristatus) - Adult male

Very good photos, The Shrike is one cool looking bird.
Superb Tabib.. This bird looks like our shrike too except that it is brighter!
Good capture of the little bird!
Tabib, thank you for the first few lines. They are very informative and useful.
I have registered this beautiful brown shrike in my library. His black mask is grogeous.
You must have a strong arms to hand-held your 400mm, nice Brown Shrike shot you have there.
Captured the colours beautifully. I think the TC makes alot of difference.
