Used a CPHP from about 25yards in the top of  a tree.  I especially liked the delayed THUMP.  An immediate drop, but he did try to hang onto a branch on the way down.  (the second pic is our cockatiel, he loves ravioli.)

Hey guys.  It is never my intention to shoot a protected species.  Mixed signals on this one.

Excellent shot at that bird with your Delta....made even harder since you were shooting upwards.  Your cockatiel needs a bath now heh heh.
