Travel 5,363km for this baby, can you believe it? Of course not lah. Went to Shinjuku Park to see the Cherry Blossom. Unfortunately, the weather was very bad, i.e. cloudy. Spotted a few of these fellows enjoying the cherry blossom too. Too bad that my EF 400mm f5.6L lens is not with me. Lighting condition is quite bad too due to cloudy weather.  I didn't manage to get a good shot of it.   |

It seem you are very near to the bird!!! Not really. In fact, these birds are highly active. They fly from one tree to another. It's quite tough to take them, and the actual size of the bird is like sparrow, kind of small. |
