While out photographing Bald Eagles, this little Sparrow landed about 40-50 feet away.
Hand held shot at 600mm.

That is really nice and sharp as heck, as is all your posts. Almost looks like that sparrow posed just for you :)

I appreciate your good comment, Dave327. My camera, lens and extender III are extremely sharp.

Great shot of a "mini-eagle" - I bet in his head he is the equal of an eagle. Sort of like my little Jack Russell thinks she is 200 lb Dire Wolf.

Ha. This little bird flew in nearby when I was shooting the Bald Eagles today.
Thank you very much, Robert.

As good as, or better, than the eagle images. Fine job, Regis.
I appreciate your good comment, kpmac. I like to photograph the small as well as the larger birds.

Regis, this shows one of the reasons I always love your photos. Your "EYE" captures the subject in all it's glory and sharp beyond belief. I know having a steady hand helps along with the grip you use and I have been practicing and will post some of my efforts in the future. I thank you again for giving me the incentive to give it a try.
