Northern Cardinal

Today I thought I got a great series of cardinal shots, only to discover the red was over-saturated and blotchy. I was using the 500mm + 1.4 TC and it was a rainy day, ISO at 1250, no biggie for this camera. All the shots are splotchy with over-saturated areas. I'm wondering if anyone else has ever encountered this?

 

I'm told now that this is a color management issue. If you are interested about colour management and saturation, the thread I started is informative:
