From Madera Canyon. An overcast day with constantly changing light conditions. D7200, Nikkor 200-500 hand held, ISO 2000, ss 1/1250 shot in RAW. Thank goodness for Topaz Photo AI still had to use DeNoise AI on occasion as well.

Great set Jack

Great Blue Heron finishing off their nest with greens

Great Blue Heron finishing off their nest with greens. Some believe these greens are for making the nest softer for the chicks which are soon to come, or, they act as odor eaters for chick droppings. Whichever is the case, greens usually mark the finishing touch to many nests. Wakodahatchee Wetlands.

Nice!

Snapped over the last few days. Alternate rain and freezing conditions.

Z8/9, Z 70-200 and 600pF. High ISOs caused by dark skies (Duh) limited my On The Wing shots.

Download and enjoy!

Very Nice!- especially your spotted Towhees and the Chestnut backed Chickadee.
