Unfortunately, this is the best shot I've gotten of a bird (cropped down to show just the bird). Shot this with my D80 and 70-300VR.

Overly sharpened, poor quality, and just overall doesn't look very good to me. It wasn't necessarily the best scene, but hey, it was a bald eagle. What sucks is that it seems like I could have maybe gotten a better shot out of it. The pose was great, but the rest of the scene, with the dead looking tree, just didn't seem that great.

So aside from that, I have yet to get a decent bird shot. A lot of it is time consuming, with just waiting for the right time to take the shot. I haven't tried getting any birds in a while, but this thread got me a little interested to try it out. All I really have around here are a bunch of little birds, which might be hard for me to get close enough to. I'll just keep practicing though.
