Hi Tabib,
These are two beautiful species.. I love he second picture better because the light is better and the composition too ;-)

Tabib: What a very cool shot of that second bird with the seeds.

Very good pictures at that high ISO setting.
I guess this must be hand held for such a high shutter speed.
Any news of Orioles nestling?

That must be male Scarlet-backed Flower pecker perched and feeding on mistletoe flowers.
Very good lighting of Oriolus chinensis with food in mouth.
This is the kind of picture where the bird will wait and stay still (if it sense danger) at some distance from its nest, before proceed to feed their chicks.

Great job!

Oh, they are both so cute and the first one is my favorite. I love how he just blends right in with the photo.
