All,

Below are some of my favorites from a recent trip to Sanibel Island, Florida. Birds are not my usual subject so I'm happy to hear and advice, criticism, etc. These are all shot with my Canon 7DII and the 100-400/L Mk.1.

Thanks in advance!

You did an excelent job David. I'm guessing shooting sports is why you had the reactions to get the nice flight photos.

Nice details throughout.
The spoonbill is my favorite of the set.

Perfect timing on the first image, and the detail in the last image is great! Nice set.

Good work David! Good looking close-up of the night heron. Ibis scoping out prey amongst the mangrove roots/rhizomes is my pick of the set. Nice stuff (and having been there recently, I can attest to the fun one can have shooting birds (and the other critters). Lovely place to visit (or live in, I suppose) and you done a good job of portraying some of the feathered attractions.

Thanks, I appreciate the comments!

I did enjoying throwing the camera into high speed shutter mode and trying out the 10fps for the first time (I recently upgraded from a 50D to the 7DII). Here's a shot of an osprey in flight as a bonus:
