Those are excellent shots. I know how difficult it is to get good ones because the ones I posted were the result of 326 shots I took that morning. It's really difficult to get the focus bang on as the AF is easily distracted with peripheral objects around the subject and adjusting focus manually while squinting through a tiny viewfinder without a split prism requires patience. And when you do get the focus, you better be still or else the shot is blurred. That's where I discovered holding my breath and the monopod. Reach is also an issue that I could use more of any time. And the mood of the birds. I'm ready to go back once the weather gets better again.


Hope to see more of your shots posted.


Regards.
