thanks Ann... i looked up loggerhead shrike. i thought it looked similar to one of our other winter migrants the great grey shrike. and sure enough, wikipedia tells me that the great grey shrike "forms a superspecies with its parapatric southern relatives, the Iberian grey shrike (L.

Re: PESO It's Junco Day

Well, I’d love to get a K-1. What stops me is that my arthritis is in my neck, and is aggravated by things like cameras and camera bags. The weight difference is 740g for the K-5 v. 1010g for the K-1, and my 35mm lenses are considerably heavier than my APS-C too. Rick > On Nov 8, 2020, at

Re: Experimenting with the K-3

Yep, it was ISO 10,000. Sun was going down and the bird was in shade. Had to keep the 1/1000th shutter while handholding with that much glass. The K-3 is good in low light. Paul > On Nov 8, 2020, at 1:34 PM, Rick Womer wrote: > > Paul, was the sparrow really shot at an ISO of 10,000? If so,

Re: PESO It's Junco Day

Thanks Rick. I just shoot. The camera does the rest, When the K-1 is on the tripod I turn shake reduction off. I leave it on of course when hand holding. BTW, in regard to K-3 and K-1 differences, I should point out that the K-1 viewfinder is much brighter and somewhat larger. It’s an impot

Re: PESO It's Junco Day

I’m curious: The K-1 shifts the sensor to minimize moire, which sacrifices some sharpness (though not as much as an AA filter). Yet your bird photos are needle-sharp, and there’s not a whisper of moire in the feathers. How do ya do that? Rick > On Nov 5, 2020, at 5:58 PM, Paul Stenquist

Re: Experimenting with the K-3

Paul, was the sparrow really shot at an ISO of 10,000? If so, the detail is remarkable (though there is a bit of noise). Nice shot overall, too! Rick > On Nov 7, 2020, at 11:33 AM, Paul Stenquist wrote: > > I wanted to try handholding my birding rig with the K-3 and no battery grip. > I

Re: GESO (10): the harriers are here

yes, for the species photographed here. we also have passage migrants, who stop en route for destinations elsewhere, such as european roller and lesser kestrel. i haven't photographed any because they hardly stay at the grasslands for a few days and i can only plan trips in the weekends. On Sun,

this migratory season is a good one by all accounts. plenty of sightings of winter migratory birds such as harriers, kestrels and other migratory species. photos from a visit to a grassland in the outskirts of chennai this weekend. except white-eyed buzzard, oriental skylark and bay-backed shrike,
