Nice photo .... Plenty of berries for the fig bird there!
Has suffered from the resizing down to 500kb unfortunately - for an alternative method see

Thanks for the link - I'm an infrequent browser of Birds in Backyards and forgot that I can use to an external site ....
Tim
will post again
Nice shot Tim, great timing.
Nice shot Tim and yes, much better to host from another site. Such a shame to crucify a good photo . I have always been told that the best way is to reduce the image size to 2000 on the longest edge before ujploading to Flickr or wherever and it seems to work well.
The just love those palm berries don't they?

Sorry if I've posted this twice ..... My browser seems to be as confused as I am. Oh well .....
Great feeding shot Tim! I've seen a few shots of Figbirds enjoying a good chow down on those berries, must be their favourites I think. Do they leave a mess when they're done?
Good tip! You can skip the resizing/image reduction before uploading to flickr too. I've tried both methods, and I upload very large jpegs, and there is no noticable difference in uploading time with images that haven't been reduced (I don't have a particularly fast connection here either, compared to some anyway). One less editing step, just another option anyway.
