p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Egret Plays Hide & Go Seek


I was back at the Yolo Wildlife Refuge w/ my monster Canon 400mm lens and before I even entered the refuge, there was a Egret that crossed the road and ran into the marsh and stuck its head into the muck thinking that he could hide. Every once in a while, he would stick his head up with something in his mouth that he would gulp down and then he would hide again. He was rather funny!

I'm having a real fun time w/ this lens and it's nice that you can hand-hold it if you want without too much negative consequences.

Thanks for checking it out.

Thanks Morris.

I'm still really surprised just how sharp this Canon EF 400mm F/5.6 USM lens is. I was really far when I took those shots. I hand-held the camera and even with the lens pretty open, they came out terrific.

Good luck.
