Ducks
A couple from a nature walk today. I was trying out my idea of an "ultralight" combo: the EF-S 55-250 STM on an RP.

An afternoon a week ago, I checked my feeder at sunset and there was zero activity, which is really odd. Something in the tree to the left of my feeder caught my eye.

A bird I had not seen before about a month ago. It is finally getting comfortable enough that I can get a few photos

So I got a new toy for Christmas and the one day it was nice enough to shoot things, I had my dog (who barks at everything) in the passenger seat. This Red Tail sat confused along the side of the road while they had a brief conversation. I left after a coupe photos as to not disturb its hunting.
