Pied-billed Grebe
I have not posted here before. I am not a pro and my interests are wildlife and nature, including landscapes. Not a birder but I do like birds, when I can photograph them.
Here are a few pictures from last year, have not done anything this year due to personal reasons.
These are all from a winter workshop in Hokkaido. The whooper swans were shot on the waters of a frozen volcanic lake in the middle of a snowstorm, the sea eagles at sunrise from a fishing boat in the pack ice and the cranes in a snow covered field. The red fox shot is a first as the animal has never been seen to confront a Steller's Eagle in this manner, usually they end up being eaten!
All taken with the a9 and the 100-400, and except for the swans, with the 1.4xTC attached.

Looking at a wading Great Egret in breeding plumage with radiating ripples in the water below the beak; 3 drops of water are on the underside near the tip of the Egret's beak. I suspect that a drop of water fell off the beak to create the radiating ripples.
Slightly cropped tripod mounted 100-400mm f4-f5.6 GM set to 297mm and A7rIII camera.
