so does everyone else have a thousand photos in the genre of "better take a pic of that big bird in case it's an eagle or someth---nope just a vulture"?

or my other favorite: "picture of a red leaf I thought might be a cardinal"

I was downtown taking pictures of buildings a little while back and saw this guy coming up the river just in time to snap a few shots. Was not prepared at all so I'm pretty happy that it came out as well as it did

Didn't even notice the fish until I pulled up the photos and quietly shouted "gently caress yeah!" when I saw it

shoutout to this Kingfisher who was kind enough to fly up and down a river for half an hour letting me take neat pics:





plus an extra shoutout to Ronnie who saw me taking bird photos and led me to this handsome fellow:

cool

What focal length are you using? I've toyed with picking up an old EF in the 500-600mm range relatively cheaply and putting it on my r6 and r7. I'm thinking 500 might be the sweet spot since that gets me 500/800 on the full frame/crop while still being decently light enough to put in a bag.

those were all with the RF100-500mm, and the last one was with the 1.4x extender on an R7 and heavily cropped, being at the top of a giant sycamore and me having to stand waaay back to find an angle
