We had the wonder opportunity to go to a covid-test-event here at the Keukehof spring garden. I'm guessing it'll be a once in a lifetime thing, but I'm delighted we could go and that the garden was ablaze with color!
Why did you shoot in crop mode since it was too narrow already? Just curious... The resulting stitched image is amazing though.
Thanks, Joshua. Because the Sony 70-350 is for APSC only. I probably could have tried and force the camera into FF mode, but I wasn't sure how bad the vignetting would be and didn't want to roll the dice.

This is one of the 3 chicks that was still learning to fly from 2020. It hopped around, flapping the wings at the time of capture. Two days later it soared up in the sky...

Looking across what I believe may be the connector or lower portion of Round Lake in the Round Lake Wilderness Area which abuts Little Tupper Lake at the William C. Whitney Wilderness Area. This is in or near Long Lake, NY in the Adirondack Mountains.
Another bird that winters at our neighborhood park is the Western Meadowlark. When foraging on the ground, they're skittish and won't let me near. In flight, they will sometimes get closer, allowing a BIF (bird-in-flight) shot.

Another outstanding capture.
Ah, okay, I wasn’t aware that the lens is an APS-C one .
I believe this eagle is a different one than the other I photographed. Different markings on the head and beak. I like the framing on this one a bit more as it’s not as busy.
