Awesome shot of the Goose taking a splash Mike.

Many thanks, Paul. This goose bathes very aggressively. It looked like it was fighting for it's life.

Excellent shot Mike.

Thank you, Ted.

I really like this shot, Manny! Very nicely captured. They all look pretty sharp.

Thanks Mike, the Sigma 150-600 Contemporary seems to do a pretty good job of focusing wide in the middle ranges.

Great shots! The trusty, crusty does some pretty nice work, Paul. I kinda miss those old days, when we had to do most of the thinking, instead of the camera doing it for us.

Two super flight shots of the caracara taking off, evelakes! They are both sharp, clear images.

Excellent close-up flight shot of the osprey, sogs!

I really like this shot, Manny! Very nicely captured. They all look pretty sharp.

This really is a terrific capture, Sid! I think dad needs to teach that youngster some manners.

What a beauty, Rayk! I love the flight pose of this owl.

Thank you Mike.
Yeah I hear ya.
That crusty 7d was pretty reliable and had a 180,000 shutter count when I sold It.
Our new mirrorless camera's shooting electronic 20/30 frames per second will rack up a million shots quickly.

I actually like this one the best of your recent series. Great angle with tighter framing and moody lighting. Very nice.

Thanks Mike, little chance of that as the poor down beaten male gets the same treatment from the other female in his life, I've watched many times the male have his catch taken off of him by female who has just been sat watching him do all the work!
