Thank you seeker. I'll try it out.
Thanks Imagemeister, I'm not the greatest with PP, but I'll check it out. I'm still a newbie.
I think you got it down. Nice shooting.
Osprey after diving in for a fish.
Beautiful. Those little guys give me fits. lol.
Here is my first Snowy Owl shot. I only cropped it slightly, no post processing. I'm still in shock.
Practice, Practice, Practice!!! You just got the new lens. Start with larger, slow moving birds or perched, calm birds. Learn the weight, feel and then you can confidently shoot better. Everyone's settings' advice here is spot on. Bird photography is addictive, good luck.
Nice set making a sea gull interesting.
Thank you all for your comments.
Got him leaving with a doggy bag.
Saw this guy when I was getting a coffee. My first hawk picture.
Finally got some definition in the feathers. These guys are tough.
