I cant wait for warmer weather when other species start migrating north. For now i will stick to the few species that stick around all winter .

Went to Merritt Island today - fewest birds by far perhaps they are starting to head north???

OK so I know the focus is off, but the peak-a-boo element this was just too cool. I need to figure out how to lead the focus w/ the tamzooka, there are several others today that the lens couldn't keep up and oof they would have been so cool....

Not a great shot, but a great bird. I slowly catch on to some things in Photoshop Elements, so that I am reworking some shots from a Grand Canyon vacation.

I cannot believe I finally have something to add to this thread!
First day out with the 7d II and the 150-600mm lens. I still have a great deal to learn about each one and the combo!! Maybe not my best bird shots but they are my only ones in a long, long time!
