These are very nice. I have the D7200 and am pleased with it for most shots. I recently bought the D500 only because I needed a faster focusing camera for birds in flight but I have no intention of parting with the D7200.

Your well done photographs prove you made a wise choice when selecting a new camera. What is the first bird please. I see you have three photos of it.

Thanks for your comments Dennis. The bird in question is a Robin.

It is a European Robin, different from the robins we have in the US.

Thats correct! The American Robin however is not a Robin but a member of the Thrush family!

What a wonderful set. Your Robins have personality that ours lack. Can you tell me what the Egret is or will I have to dig out my old Peterson "Field Guide to Birds of England" ?

Thank you very much. Honestly I should have known as I know your robins are similar but different than ours in America.
