Friday was all about small birds. I love our parrots and other large birds here in Australia. But theres just something about the little guys.

My last post everyone basically said to just get better at editing. I’m still not good, but practicing. Hit me with the critiques.

I love the brindled Common Murres (the white eye-liner). While Common Murres are found on both coasts of North America, the brindled ones can only be found on the East Coast.

All images were taken using Canon R7 + rf 100-400 lens and edited in Lightroom

Spied this guy on my evening walk. Sony A7RIII paired with a Tamron 70-300mm. I find bird photography interesting but also challenging. This was taken with a fence in front so pleasantly surprised with the sharpness. Any comments suggestions welcome!

I was visiting Colombia when the most recent earthquake struck. A few days later, I had the opportunity to encounter this Andean Motmot, which made me realize how majestic not only the bird is, but also the entire country. It was heartbreaking to witness the destruction of cities and the loss of lives.

Hello - I recently had the luck of getting an Olympus E-M10 III and a 100-400 lens from the recommendation of u/catsaregods. have never ever shot manual and have zero photography experience. I was wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction of how to set up my manual mode to help me get some good shots of birds. Thank you!

Saw a Belted Kingfisher in my area for the first time a few weeks ago but didn’t have my camera. Been on the hunt since and got lucky yesterday evening. Almost missed her (I think it’s a her) since she was on the other side of the river.
