This handsome couple just decided to show off right in front of me. I had the DA* 50-135 on my k10D at the time. Images are cropped to 8x10 aspect ratio and resized to show here.

EDIT: These are Yellow Headed Blackbirds, Xanthocephalus xanthocephalus.

Images passed through Dx0 to Lightroom, cropped to 8x10 format, resized and exported as 800 x 640 JPEG. EXIF did not survive. I still cannot figure this out - one of these years.
K10D + DA* 50-135 @ 135mm, ISO 100, 1/250 @ f/3.5.
