You were up close didn't you?
Thanks!
, ya I guess I'm a few years late on that
For the shots in the trees I wasn't real close on these to be honest. On of the things about the Crossbills is that they like to be up in the pine trees so to get decent shots you have to stand back a bit so the angle isn't straight up, unnless you get lucky and they are on a low branch. I'd guess 15' from the tree and they are 10-20' up in the branches.
For the one drinking I was actually pretty close. We had stopped and a few of them flew down from the tree and drank from the puddle that was maybe 10' away.. so I laid on the ground and fired off a few shots before they flew away.

Snowy Egret. With A7R4.
jpeg straight out of the camera with no post processing, except cropping. Although the scene is a little dark, the lighting grew on me, and I decided to leave it alone.

I didn't know that green tail towhees made it as far as Texas.
Normally they don't. This is a wayward bird for us. I get a rare bird alert from Ebird so knew it was here. Still being reported too. A friend recently shared one in the West Houston area also.
We have had quite a number of wayward hummingbirds this year as well.
