Here are some more shots taken with the 20D and FD 500 f4.5L.
These were taken Tuesday at the Albany Mudflats. ISO 400,
f6.3-8, AV mode. The FD 500L is a manual focus and aperature
lens used with a FD-EOS adapter that makes it equivalent to
approx. 600mm f5.6.

Very nice bird images. The white one on your last shot is a lill blown, but still crispy. Well done George.

Wow, beautiful birds. Nice images. Wish the white wasn't blown in the last photo.

Thanks Janika, Reyno, and Sindri.

Janika, I usually don't photoshop my photos, but I brought down the highlights in
the last shot and reposted it.
