Another rare flycatcher to Wisconsin and a first ever Milwaukee County bird, Say's Phoebe! I've only seen one once before and that was in Madison area, in 2016. It's visiting a local cemetery.

Beautiful pictures, Jeremy. I especially like the first one.

More warblers... Up next is the stunning Prothonotary Warbler! I was able to get some pretty good looks at a beautiful male during the fallout last week.

Great shots Jeremy - in both series! The background in the first series is somewhat somber but it's what it is - the birds dictate the background.

Got another vary rare bird for Wisconsin and also a life bird for myself! A Western Tanager has been around for a few days, but only confirmed recently. Another stunning bird! 7D mkll / EF600 F4 ll / 1.4x lll

It's been so long since I posted on the site but still marvel at the quality of images contained herein, I have morphed through a 7D mk2 to 5Dmk4 to R6 since I joined and still feel on a learning curve.
I recently visited one of the Firth of Forth islands here on the Scottish east coast which is always a delight for producing frame filling images, Puffin and Razorbill attached, if I can manage the process.

Frame filling, indeed! Great to see. How close can you get to these creatures, and how stealthy do you have to be? While I’m asking, can you tell me the lens used? Thanks.

-we are all in "learning curves" (I hope: if you stop learning you are practically death...). Very nice images and I believe you are not at the platoo of your learning curve! Keep posting!

Thanks Guy's, I use the canon EF100-400 mk2 with RF adapter, on the R6. In these images with the 1.4 teleconverter attached to aid flight shots that interest me most. The Puffin was at 560mm taken at probably 4M+ and the Razorbill at 189mm taken using the flip screen as the camera was held looking down over a wall with the bird sitting directly below, minimal cropping only to assist composition. As long as you sit quietly the birds are very confiding and behave normally.

Just arrived in Rome on our first foreign travel for over two years. Brought the R5 + RF 100-400 with, and couldn’t resist taking a shot of a Sparrow. I know sparrows aren’t exciting but the first foreign bird in over two years is! And he is a very handsome Italian one (processed on my iPad).

Very nice picture, Alan.
