I hope romantic whispering qualifies.
Unfortunately, I’m not a certified exhibitionist on the FM fora, so I cannot exhibit here. Instead, I humbly offer you a link to many photographs, not measly 3 (since I’m generous by nature in both: giving and taking), where romantic whispering is absolutely necessary.

Thank you for your entries, Lan. Can you please identify the lens(es) used because the contest is about bird shots taken with lenses no longer than 135mm FL.

My catalog doesn't exist after abandoning Adobe s/w, so it would be too much time to search & mark old pictures. Most were taken with 135/2 or shorter and few with 300/4 IS. As you may know the choice of equipment to me doesn't matter. If this disqualifies the entry that is fine. Enjoy.

I haven't taken many bird photos at less than 135mm but here is one that just barely qualifies.

Not much as far as technical excellence or artistic merit but at 17mm at least it checks the short focal length box.

1d4 and 16-35 f4 @ 17mm.

This is a seriously good shot, and at 17mm to boot. You are aiming for the win, my good man.

A young Coopers Hawk having just snatched a song bird out of the air. Headed back to "his" tree. Very long shot at 68mm with a 24-70mm f/2.8L and my old 1DIIn. (1/640, f/9.0)

Pretty busy with work but found these 3 on my desktop so thought I may as well throw them in the mix. All taken in a wild colony located in the United Arab Emirates. Stinking hot weather (highest work day we recorded 59 degrees) but I felt sorry for these guys more than myself. Who designs a black bird who decides to breed in the peak of summer? Hope to see more great work on this thread soon.

I'm a little late in posting this but this thread got me thinking and wanting to challenge myself to take some bird pics with my 6D + 135L. Eastern Bluebirds with their fledglings.

Well, I'm going to be a bit of a squeaky wheel here, as the Nature and Wildlife forum as always been more inclusive, I think having it limited to Canon cameras gets away from that and takes away from some of the other members who have something to add...if someone wants to do this in the future...make it open to everything, otherwise post it in the Canon forum.
