a few from yesterday testing sigma 150-600mm contemporary on a canon 80d.. works well!

Beautiful series. Well done, snappy604.

I went on an eagle outing for a couple of days, snapped over 2000 pictures. Here are a few that I liked

Here are some juvenile bald eagles. All of the photos were taken with a 6DII and 100-400LII.

Here are some adult bald eagles

And finally, this composite.

It was a lucky fluke: AF caught the eagle with an out of focus moon, and after he flew out of the frame, AF grabbed the moon right behind him and took a couple more shots. I combined the two so that the moon and the eagle are both in focus

Great shots. 8) Well done, Phil.

Oh sure, humans are smarter than birds. But birds don't have to care about gravity. You never see a bird falling down a flight of stairs.

Whaaaaat? You shot a flying Pelican super sharp! Arthur Morris sold all his Canon equipment and switched to Nikon because he could not shoot flying Pelicans among others! ;D
I wonder how he will feel if he sees your Pelican shot ;D

@Click - Thanks!

Here are a few more from the outing. It was a crisp winter day, which really cuts down on the haze, plus some snow on the ground, which helped reflect light upwards.

Another very nice series. Well done, Phil.

I was in Vagas a decade ago and there was a curbside bird show. I asked bird handled how did he prevent the birds pooping during the show. He said it was 20 minutes, too!

My African Grey can hardly last 10 minutes and sometimes he doesn't squat!

I don't have patience, I'm just too lazy to move.

Another good one of a redpoll!

 

[Jack Douglas]

Hey Alan, there are so many redpolls I have to quit shooting them for fear my wife will come after me with the broom. The snow is melting/receding and they are finding all the hidden berry fragments etc. Can't wait for spring here.
