A red-winged black bird sings his morning song to me. Light was low for the big Tamron, so the ISO was a bit high.

I had to peek in between the reeds to capture this little grebe but I managed. Shot #2 is of a little blue heron doing his morning jog around the pond.

Two terrific shots of the red-winged blackbird, Kirk! I especially like the second shot.

What a lovely shot of the great horned owl, Johnathan! The right wing seems to be dragging a bit. I hope she's alright.

Room in here for a birding noob?

This is one of the few images that actually came out good enough to do anything with out of almost 200 images mostly with ai servo mode and h speed drive. Thinking something needs a MFA (micro focus adjustment) snapped today.

Then again I'm fairly new to wildlife and bird photography. I got lucky with this session with a hawk.

Frustrated as I expected a little bit better than mostly rubbish from the 80d and canon 300mm f/4L is, some images looked totally out of focus. Anyway the image hopefully acceptable for this thread :-)
