Thought I would post up another set of mixtures from around Alice Springs in Australia:

1. First up is a Hoary-headed Grebe in breeding plumage, not the best IQ even with an effective focal length of 960mm I still had to crop this a fair bit:

2. Rainbow Bee-eater:

Thanks for the feedback Mig. I have been busy the last day or two and may be a while before I can post any shots as my mother-in-law is in her last days on Earth so we are making arrangements to make the inevitable flight back to Sydney for her last days.
