Brown Shrike at home

About to go birding, surprisingly from my backyard (Khet Bangkok Noi) a Brown Shrike นกอีเสือสีน้ำตาล was sitting there. My wife said I got up late again so the bird just came to call me up. A crop from P600's 16 megapixels is decent, isn't it?

Ferruginous Flycatcher

About to leave Phutthamonthon at 3 pm when I spotted this flycatcher in the bamboo garden. Some shots revealed that it's my new find, a Ferruginous Flycatcher นกจับแมลงสีน้ำตาลแดง. Some  birders with big gears also stopped by as I gestured. These shots were taken on the next day. A small crest is seen, so it is presumably male.

It's quite bright at noon. Migrants were calling all the ways around.

In the next two pics, I experimented P600 "Moon shot mode" to shoot these birds. The camera made a zoom to 1440 mm with one touch and it took a little more time to stabilize picture. It seems to me that the images are very sharp. Will try more.
