A common, small forest-floor inhabitant with the unlikely name Flat-Branched Tree-Clubmoss. About 300 million years ago it was responsible for most of the coal we have today. Today's version is much smaller than those during dinosaur days. 50mm f/1.4.
I had mounted the 300mm f/4.5 set to f/11 because if we saw anything interesting enough to use it I wouldn't have time to switch lenses. That turned out to be a good decision. Early in the day a hawk flew overhead. Little time to react, just zone focus and shoot. I believe this is an immature RedTail.
