I dont normally photograph birds, but I was testing out my 7dII w/100-400 II at Disney Animal kingdom. I believe this was shot at ISO 3200.

Beautiful bird. Well done.

Not truly in flight but also not a stationary target, this female mallard made a grand entrance to a very shallow channel in the slough.

Great shot with beautiful light

I got over 30 photos of this geese chase. Only a few of them were not in good focus.
Im happy with the focus performance of my 7DII

Great eagle shots!

I still only have my regular tiny friends around, but will go for more fun shoots shortly. I have not really tested the 7DII yet, but this one is straight raw to jpeg, with standard LR settings, cropped to 1:1.

Thanks guys, it was a pleasure to see the eagles so close to home and then to be appreciated via photos is even better. Hope to get back there but for me, May is unavailable so once they are out of the nest it's likely very challenging since they'll be who knows where, maybe miles away.

cdn_photog, any idea how late they might still be at the nest - early June??

If any of you are interested, I've managed to find a live eagle cam from Pennsylvania -> http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt?open=514&objID=1592549&mode=2
There are two small eaglets (as of now) in that nest, and you should be able to use it for reference. Good luck!

However (and that was a BIG "however"...) how did the chase end? Please do tell.

Goose at a local marsh. It was blowing a regular gale this morning so I had great difficulty holding my lens (300mm f/4L + 1.4x extender) still enough to get decent shots. I took over 200 pictures but only a handful were good enough to keep.
