After months of no serious birding, I found some time last weekend to drive to nearby Baguio (northern Philippines) and try my luck at mountain birds.
Light was very low under the canopy of pine trees and I was hand holding, so I had to use high ISOs. Wish I brought my monopod with me, I could have shot at 1 stop slower shutter speed and lower ISO. A tripod wouldn't work in that place - it could've limited my mobility as the ground is sloping and uneven, and the undergrowth was too dense. With the dim lighting, it was a challenge trying to AF at the active, small subjects (mostly 4-1/2" to 5-1/2" in total length, from tip of bill to end of tail).
