I caught this male Cardinal eating seeds at Spring Creek Forest Preserve in Garland TX. Looks like I grabbed the shot at the perfect time….he’d just chomped the seed and spit out the seed. If you look close enough, you’ll see his tongue. Captured with Canon 7D and Canon 400mm 5.6 L sitting atop my Induro [...]

While out scouting for our new Great Horned Owl friend (see photo and video), I heard a ruckus across the creek and noticed this hawk fighting with another hawk. The 2nd hawk left and this Red-Tailed Hawk landed on a nice perch. This is a pretty good crop from original but I think it crops well. Captured [...]

I caught this Mockingbird eating berries in a tree…after swallowing one, she decided to stick out her tongue…perhaps the berry was bad? Captured with Canon 7D and Canon 400mm 5.6 L sitting on my Induro CT314.

Although I recently fell in love with the Canon 500mm f/4 L IS USM lens after renting it from Borrowlenses.com, the Canon 400mm 5.6 [...]
