10/52 - One from my first batch learning how to use my new lens. Wow is it a bit challenging to keep stable even with the monopod.

I believe it's a Western Kingbird.

Nice start with your new toy. I like the little detail of the feathers ruffled over the stick.

Great start. Catchlight, clear of obstructions and some environment OOF in the BG. Excellent. Don't forge the s/s 2x FL Rule: If at 400mm s/s should be 2x (or more) to get crisp and sharp i.e. 1/800s or preferably 1/1600s so you have done well here at 1/2000s. Push the D7000 to at least ISO 1600. Noise is still pretty minimal there. I use De Noise 5 if it's too prominent. Don't be afraid to DeNoise, as long as you get your shot.
