Alan,
Very nice shot, both technically and visually.
One little detail: I would consider smoothing out the noise a little bit.
K-7 @ ISO 800 is becoming noisy in the shadows. You can see the "digital
texture" on the leaves and on the "belly" of the bird.
Best,
Igor

The Spookvoël (Afrikaans) or Grey Headed Bush Shrike (Malaconotus
blanchoti) is a large Shrike with a bad reputation because it takes
fledglings from nests. However, its main diet is small lizards & insects
which it catches on trees in the canopy where it spends most of its
time. The Afrikaans name comes from its mournful call. It also make a
clicking sound as it works its way through the canopy.
