My alarm went off, I opened my eyes, looking for the snooze button, and saw this little guy roaming around outside in my yard. I literally sprang out of bed, grabbed my Nikon D200 (I love mentioning my totally amazing new camera whenever I can!), and took these pictures. These were taken from inside the house, behind the glass, about 20-25 feet away from the bird. I simply LOVE that camera! You'll soon see why!
Birdie showing off its tail!
I was chanting, turn-around-turn-around, when he decided to...turn around :)
And THIS is the most amazing part! This is a zoomed in version of the above picture. See that WORM in his mouth! (Photo bada kar ke dekho yaar, you'll see it)
I can't believe I could capture that from so much distance and so much clarity!

@sourish, thank you hai jee :) dil khush ho gaya comment padh ke, khikhi :)
@vrij, anjuli, ella, macademia, Thanks! I was SO surprised when I saw that worm when I zoomed in!
@ceedy, ok, moklu chhu.
@crazybugga, you shouldn't have asked me this question dude. Now I am feeling completely flabbergasted. We got the camera and a couple lenses for $3000, and made my sisters pay for it...as a wedding gift. Hubby was really not willing, mere ko lena hi tha. Just did the conversion to INR, I feel bad for my sisters, and am seeing why my husband was so reluctant! It came up to an insane Rs. 121,274.998!
Ungrateful wretch that I am, I haven't even shown the camera or these pictures to my sisters. Bad girl, bad girl!
OMIGOSH ur camera's aweeesum!
@elusive, yep, its mindblowing!
Nice pic. Yeah the D200 is really a good camera. Even my brother in law has that.
