Nuthatch. One shot by my wife on the R7 + RF100-400mm at iso 16K, the other by me at iso 4k + 1ev in post with R5 + RF100-500mm. Both cropped. Why worry about iso nowadays?

Number 3 is wonderful for me to be able to see the mouth structure a little bit!

I really can't notice any obvious difference in regards to how the noise software delt with the noise. You and your wife really do make it look easy! What was the difference in settings in regard to the white balance?

That grebe with the water droplet is too cute!

They are both on default WB. The different lenses and sensors seem to make a difference in general between the two. The R7/RF100-400mm is warmer.

These are from a park in Madrid.

The bits of orange around the eye and front of the lower beak are quite attractive!

First time (!) this year, that I could get a kingfisher. ...

The last quarter of the year seems to become the kingfisher quarter

As I have written before, a cormorant has been around our ponds for a few weeks.

Nice series, Maximilian.
