Despite the challenging light conditions and my ISO reaching 20,000 at times, I had a lot of fun photographing these comical birds!

All photos taken with the Canon R5 with the Sigma 500mm f/4 Sport Lens (adapted) with Sigma TCs.

#1 - Feathers Flying

#2 - Balancing Act

#3 - Chickens Can Fly

#4 - Heads Up!

#5 - Angry Bird

#6 - A Total Showoff

#7 - Lonesome Female

#8 - One Step at a Time

Alphonsus - I bet you did have a fun time shooting these. Really enjoyable to view. I really like #5 and #6. Well done.

Great looking images Alphonsus. Each one captures something interesting in behavior and/or appearance. I'm also enjoying the benefits of adapted lenses. I feel there game changes

Quite the combo of gear and ISO Alphonsus! Nice ground view angle and the colors stand out nice on that pale background.

Great photos, but my first thought was......wonder how they taste compared to domestic chickens.

Sorry......not sorry.

Great set. As much as the mountains appeal to me, the plains do as well. Gave you a deserved vote.
