Tim, tell me it isn't so!!! Z9 having a problem holding focus??? I thought that was supposed to be impossible!!
These are great shots. We used to see Band Tailed Pigeons often when we lived in the hills west of Bremerton!

Thanx! We are West and South of Bremerton. My arthritic shoulders prevent smooth target tracking. The AF selected was Spot- not 3D- with Wide C1 under fn2. Animal tracking is active and was working. I could not keep the bird in the box!

Beautiful shots Timothy. When I lived in Felton, CA in the mid 60s flocks of them would descend on my feeder and within a few minutes empty it and leave. To get a return on my seed investment I shot and ate a number of them--not too bad if you are really hungry
