The elusive Bittern......I just cant justify a Z9 and S series glass, when my old D500 and 500 F4 G are still performing.

All three of the Bittern shots are terrific captures, Glynn! I like them all the same.

Great shot of these two Ospreys, Paul! The bird in front is apparently being told what to do (the male I presume). I'm guessing the bird in back, giving the orders, is the female.
