LR-18006 - Continuing on from the other day we had some sunshine, one day only and the birds were having a ball in the garden with all the new food, whilst others sat on the fence and watched, this girl decided it was time for a bath in the top pond waterfall. 10 minutes of pure fun watching I can assure you. She was there that long went indoors changed the lens walk back out and she was still splishing and splashing around.
European Blackbird, Turdus merula (female)
Another one up for the old lens (25 years +) on the Canon
Canon EOS 7D
Optomax 300mm f/5.6 - lowest setting (which brings me back to the digital lens comment about f settings, ok another day).
Free hand - No AF, IS or USM on this one so quite pleased with the results at 30 foot away, 1/3 crop of the original
Maybe it's time to spend a lot of money on a lens to capture these moments:)
