WinchesterDave Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Taken the other day. It was a bit overcast but my girlfriend had let me borrow her 7dmk2 for the day - so the weather didn't put me off I was up and out and had a great time using it. It's a fantastic I camera and I really enjoyed using it - do I want to upgrade....? YES! Anyway here's a small selection of my outing:) This Nuthatch is my first ever image of one. I was made up seeing it in front of me. It was taken again, with the 7dMk2 but with the Canon 400mm L f5.6 lens (girlfriend bought yesterday - straight to Mere Sands wood to try it out and caught this little guy ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDog Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 All good shots. The first one is interesting. One is last years young and the other is an older bird. They appear to be going through a mating ritual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
