I have no idea what they are doing but hiding their heads and exposing their ar@@
? On other hand it looks like they are doing a push-ups - almost synchronized !Jokes aside - I have no idea what actually they do... Click could be very on the point!

Or you may use the camera DanP used on the previous page! The problem (amongs many others!) is to find any bird before the polar bears find you
!

Out on a walk yesterday, with the usual complete lack of birds. But, as evening was coming in, some fellow walkers told us that there was a flock of Cattle Egrets - a rarity in the UK - in a somewhat inaccessible sheep field. We found them, and they were very skittish, and too far away for close ups with the RF 100-400mm. These shots give the flavour.

Took out the 100-500mm + 2x TC yesterday as I knew the 100-400 would be too short for most shots. Here are some tiny crops at 1000mm enlarged 1.4x of a Kestrel, and a Lapwing in flight. I was pleased with the Lapwing as it caught its iridescence.

Recently visited the Botanic Gardens in the city I live in - was there to shoot the late bloomers with my RP but came back with some bird-shots as well.
Taken with an EOS RP with the adapted Sigma 150mm OS Macro at f/2.8. Mind you: Because he moved quite a bit I resorted to using Servo-Mode with deactivated Eye-AF. Works plenty alright with the RP, though not as many keepers as with Animal-AF on either my R5 or R6. The background is a bit wonky because of the fence behind the little dude.

This one attracted my attention because of the unusual colors - the legs are not yellow or grayish, the bared skin around the eyes is not yellow but pinkish, that bill is too red! And the iris of the eyes - red?!
On other hand I think it was more than just a documentary shot (so, I like it!)... I'm ready to send the RAW files to any one interested - I see such a Cattle Egret first time (well, I took this photo today October 30, I saw a lot of strange things today but didn't expect any birds to take a place in these games!) so, any one interested of the RAW files (or has a photo with similar coloration of the Cattle Egret) is welcome! The last photo is for comparison - nearby (and standard looking) bird!
This is not a joke!
