It isnt as tempting to go out with the camera in the cold after spending 4 weeks in Florida, but I got wrapped up and went to a local bird sanctuary this morning .
The birds here at home spook a lot easier than the southern ones but i managed to get close to a few.

You are really doing great on the close ups of small birds, these are not so easy most of the time.
From this past weekend...if the light is just right the 7DII can produce amazing resolution. It's impossible to tell on these images as posted but the RAW files at 100% were extremely sharp.
Loving the winter shots....
More from the Circle B Bar Reserve....

Thanks for viewing...Brant
Love the shot of the heron, Brant! Perfect in every way!
Joel , how much editing do you do to your pictures if any ? I am having a hard time getting good light in the eyes like you seem to get most of the time.
Seeing your pictures from the 7D2 , i wish i still had mine to play with but i dont regret trading for the 1dsIII.
