The picture of this Hermit Thrush was taken at the New York Botanical Gardens in the Bronx, New York. This picture was taken with the CANON EOS7D with the CANON 100-400mm lens with a flash attachment.

I am pleased to be able to get captures in the more shaded parts of the woods using the flash with a minus 2 and -3 adjustment. Some birds are rarely seen in bright light. I was in the forest portion of the New York Botanical Gardens when I came across about 5 Hermit Thrushes moving about low to the ground.
