Two excellent captures Larry, enjoyed the action in #1 with the churned up water. The Heron is a beautiful youngster.

The juvie night heron is a very pretty bird. The territorial dispute is a great shot, lots of action going on.

Great action captured in your first shot. The little heron in the second is beautifully sharp and clear! Excellent work.

So, do you use bodypod most of the time? Why do you prefer it to a monopod?Canon 50D with Sigma 100-300 f4 and Tamron SP 1.4X ..... from bodypod

I do use the bodypod mostly now. - and even mostly without the receiver belt - which is mostly because I am not traveling far or being out for long periods and because I am only using the Sigma 100-300 and Sony A77II which is only about 5 lbs put together
Also, if I anticipate lots of action ( birds) I use the bodypod over the monopod. The monopod becomes more viable if I anticipate waiting long periods of time or traveling longer distances.Before I was carrying 10 lbs with the Canon and 300 2.8 W/2X ......but now with only 5lbs to carry, life is better !

The bodypod is very close to performing like hand held - more so than monopod ....
