Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

Here's one more I tried to catch in flight

And another one I tried to catch when hunting (a little late so I missed the dive shot)

Awesome shot! What gear are you working with?

[–] peachfaced 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks! I use a Sony a6000 with the Sigma 150-600mm lens (EF to E mount adaptor too).

Awesome! I have conventional lenses from 18mm-300mm all in 2.8/f or lower (some are 1.4/f). I shoot mirror less with an obscure Pentax K-01.
