Went out to Theler Wetlands in Belfair, Wa. with a fellow FM'er Bob Lund. We saw a pretty good variety of species--the light was not good so there were not pictures of all--but a pretty good day.
All taken with the 40D as the MKIII is back in Va.
All very high ISO--1000-1600
1.This guy flew closer to us, so as to make sure they were in the picture.

I like the last 1 a lot! I think he had its eyes on some fish :-) Great detail too...may I ask what lens?
Thanks, Nello.
The blackbird and the heron were taken with the 300/2.8 + 2X TC, Towhee and pheasant with the 1.4 TC. There was not a lot of light. The 40D did pretty well under the conditions, definitely not as good as the MKIII--but not bad!
Bonnie, Well done, The Toweys there are more tame there. I have a wild one in my yard as well, but he is impossible to photograph. I got a nice image of one at Theler last year. Bruce
