Both photos are nice but my hero is the Wren!I think this is a Chipping Sparrow.....
Shot with the 6D Mark ii using the Tamron 85mm f/1.8 @ f/1.8View attachment 187808
I like the owl, not the crowd.Hawk owl on Sunday in a subdivision north of Toronto. 7D2 +EF 400mm f.5.6 - 1/1250@ f6.3 .... and the gang it attracted once word spread
Yeah - long and very well camouflaged: I like that guy with rather bright blue jacked and nicely camouflaged lens! Anyway, I think you have very nice neighborhood: both birders and photogs!!! Thanks for the photos - both of them!I was on a birding shoot with several others driving around and looking for snowy owls. Apparently the leader had heard about this owl being in this area and drove by. We saw a crowd of people -- and this was only half of them -- with artillery two blocks away. I thought it was funny -- I didn't know so many people in the Toronto area owned so many long lenses.

It’s lens protection rather than camouflage - to protect against crowds.Yeah - long and very well camouflaged: I like that guy with rather bright blue jacked and nicely camouflaged lens!

Black Nikon lenses get hot unlike white Canon ones..
! Actually I'm using one - to protect the lens when under direct sunlight, it was getting hot in no time.
