Excellent shots Ben. I saw you post about your 7D and searched your posts. Glad I did as these are great.

I need to check that location out along with the Bolsa Chica preserve. Unfortunately, my longest lens is still the 70-200.

Fantastic shots. the dripping water looks like it's been dyed blue.
Have you MAF'd that lens? Mine was front focusing by +2.

Thank you windpig! No, I have read about in the forum but yet to try it. I will have to look into this week!

Well, for the pelicans feedings coming up in a few weeks, 70-200 is plenty cause they will be very close. Other birds, yes, a minimum of 400mm just to get by. Thank you for your kind comments.

Wow, the colors are just fantastic. Not sure if it's the camera or that you possibly found the bluest Heron on the planet! VERY nice.

Awesome shots. Incredible level of detail. I live 7 minutes from a salt water marsh in Southern Maine and this past summer I was greeted at sunrise with 2 herons and about 15 egrets and a dozen canadian geese. I hope to have a suitable camera to shoot them by next spring and this looks like a great body for value.
