Marsh harrier

I really like the open beak and to see the tongue.
Closer framing might work also, wouldn't it?

Thanks! I wish I could make it closer. The shot was made from a distance. The file is a 100% crop, 3000x2000, without resize.

Jay (Garrulus glandarius)
R5 + RF100-400 5.6-8
@ 1/4000, f/8, ISO 3200

A big advantage of the Rf 100-400: due to it's small size and weight the lens is in my bag even for a one hour walk (which lasted five hours because the weather stayed fine )

Yesterday started digging in old photos (all from 2020 and made with 200-500) to find some Brown Boobies and today continued with some never de-noised with DxO Prime photos (actually many were never post processed). All photos below are Red-footed Boobies, the last one subadult.

Really nice schots @ISv.
I really like those birds from the family sulidae. At the North Sea, I once saw northern gannets (morus bassanus, and I know them from several zoos).
Really nice to learn about boobies and how colourful they can be

Here are my best Boobies from the Galapagos, taken with the 5DSR and EF 100-400mm II (still a great combo). A Red-footed, Nazca and Blue-footed, showing the feet, just.

Thank You!
Just two of a series of 14.

Great swallow shots, Cog.
I think I'll have to think about having seen some as sharp as yours before.
I've tried on swallows, too. But never got any photo worth posting here.
I know how tricky fast and agile they are.
Really great
