Great set Nello,

No outside help allowed for the turtle count Karl
in #6 cutting the wing off wasn't enough so I wanna push it even further "creatively" so I chopped the beak too 
#4 I didn't do any PP on the eye...it was just one of those lucky shots when he would have that eye protection thingy on so the eyes don't turn red like usual. It only happened in 2 shots in my whole collection.
I'm still struggling w the BB at short distances...it's too powerful if the bird is just a few meters away.....sometimes I dial in more than -1 FEC !
Glad you liked the ibis shots...they're becoming quite common here

OK, first challenge question, can I phone a friend on the Turtle count please Now I think it is a trick question, 'how many turtle heads can I count', easy my friend, as many as you need me too
Again, your processing is quite a statement, you have developed a very identified style, I like that Nello, very cool stuff. First shot is a great fill flash shot, maybe you did little work on the eye but very nice, like it! I like #4 alot, just a neat pose, and neat details in the shadows of that eye. Oh, and on #6, you my friend stold the show from ANT, man he has nothing on your 'chop', I mean that is a CHOP!
#10, good thing for -2/3 rds, saved the shot, neat little puff ball And to fininsh the show, last shot of the Ibis wings is just lovely
Way to do it Nello!
Karl 
Thx Socrate! I'm already in love with the 40D, it's AF system and controls (coming from the XT) I sold the XT already thing is I can't put it down...even when i'm at work I can't wait to get home and get out w it

Congrats on your new camera body, Nello. You'll be enjoying the 40D: it is a very good camera. Very good images and very good job with the fill flash. The italian sparrow is my favorite. I also like the composition of the Peacock and the wings display in 12. Of the Luigi series # 3 is my pick.
Socrate
Yeah I wanted to slap myself w the 1-400 for missing the framing on that sequence
Turtle heads are 5 got you w that one...there's a head in the oof area under the pink flower
Glad you liked the over the top peacock a co-worker of mine who lives near that park told me there're 3 males now! I never managed to see the females though  I gotta pay a visit again
Hey i'm working on the limo-birding files

Nello, where do I start? Well let me start at 6, this is exactly what I say to you zoom guys, ZOOM!!! Too funny, nice sharp shot but you need to pull that 400 -100 back when this happens You're (notice my proper English ) making me laugh.
The peacock is wonderful, it made me say wow. I like the impact of the shot, I think it is the comp as much as anything.
4 turtle heads by my count buddy!!
The Ital sparrow is wonderful.
12 is my favorite.
PP comments. This is your normal style. The peacock, only the body is over the top. The other shots are pure Nello, bump the hue of the greens and push the sat a tad, no big deal. Love it. That is one thing I really liked about comparing your greenies to mine, how we each treated the PP. I like mine, your style is different but I like it also.
Nice set my friend
Tim
