I am gearing myself up on a birding trip; not to Costa Rica but to Ecuador this time around. I still have 9 more days to go but to get in the mood I started digging into my vault of images from CR and here are 2 of them that didn’t make the cut during the previous 2 rounds...
I used an adapted lens as my main lens on my A7r II. And that was a superb performer. This time around, I am going all native now .

Along Jordan Creek. Trexler Nature Preserve, Schnecksville, PA.
A couple shots from yesterday morning (all shot with A7RIV+100-400GM). I was in a rush to go somewhere else, didn't get to spend much time to enjoy the tranquility of this beautiful fall morning.
