Here are some initial shots with my R5 and 800mm f/11. It's too early to tell how good the 800mm is. I shot these in jpeg, and Canon's jpeg engine is extremely aggressive in eliminating noise as ISO goes up. I may revisit some of these shots when Adobe starts supporting R5 RAW.
I've suddenly become a fan of ducks.
A female grackle
I was amazed to watch this great blue consume this rather large fish. Unfortunately, I missed the capture. This bird was standing in the same spot when I started the day. I found him with the fish in his mouth as I was leaving two hours later. It probably took him 10-15 min (or longer) to get this fish into its mouth.
A tricolor heron (back) and a little blue heron (front).
