Great shots Jeremy! Your persistence paid offWith the weather we had a few weeks ago, many birds from the west were blown into the Midwest and even further into the East. Here in Wisconsin, there have been several reports of Spotted Towhees, one of them only 40 minutes from me. Today I finally had time to get out, walk around and try to find him. I did find him and it was a life bird! He was hanging around a "late" female Eastern Towhee. 7D mkll / EF600 f4 ll / 1.4x lll.

Just a female Northern Flicker against some fall foliage in the local mountains.

Beautiful photos! You make me long for traveling to the big mountains & forests.Two owl sightings in one morning - what a treat! First, close encounter with the cute little saw-whet owl; then the great horned owl sleeping high up on a tree.View attachment 194231View attachment 194232
Yes they are called great whites for good reasons. I have the 600 F4 II which is a great lens but a bit of effort the use.Hi Hector.
Lovely shot, dreamy bokeh! Got to love those great whites!
Cheers, Graham.
It's a lovely lens and takes the 2xTCIII really well too. It was the first telephoto I had that took really tack sharp shots.Yes they are great for a reason. I have the 600 F4 II which is a great lens but a bit of effort the use.
The 300 2.8 II is a very flexible lens and takes the 1.4 extender really well. I use it handheld quite a bit.
Yes, once you get that sharp its hard to go back to fairly sharp. It separates the background too very well.It's a lovely lens and takes the 2xTCIII really well too. It was the first telephoto I had that took really tack sharp shots.
Great capture. Nice bit of actionI am sorting out photos from this year to make a 2021 calendar and found this one I had missed of a Cormorant flying in. The old DSLR never misses these shots. I am waiting for lock down to end to use the R5 in that location.
