Finally got a Tufted Titmouse today, and a Black-capped Chickadee as well.

..those are great! Someday I'll actually put my 400 5.6L to good use. The bald eagles will be here before I am ready. I need to start shooting some birds. What do you guys shoot? 1/1600 sec for BIF?
Adobe, give us courage to edit what photos must be altered, serenity to delete what cannot be helped, and the insight to know the one from the other.

These are super sharp and very well done, excellent work!!!
Yes, you will want all the shutter speed possible. If you have the light go as high as you can even 1/5000!!Originally Posted by Rocco
Really nice series Dustin. The creamy backgrounds really allow the feather detail to come through on these.
Recent Downy Woodpecker image from the back yard, a gray overcast day so had to use a higher ISO to get adequate shutter speed

Nice Junco Denise! Great pose and head angle....only thing I see is that the critical focus point seems to be midway back on the body.
Thanks, Joel! Now that you mention it, you are correct ...I looked back and my focus point was not on his eye as I had thought! So much for my dependable hand holding abilities with the 100-400mm!
I think these are alittle better as fars as correct focus goes ...

Denise, I agree, these are really nice and I like the framing too. On the male cardinal see if you can do a little dodging on his eye so the iris just slightly more visible. I think that would really add some impact. Good work!!
