This is where the conservancy grows native plants and eventually reintroduces them to their natural place in the ecosystem.
Its just a GBH but I love the setting.
This is at Apopka Wildlife Drive, Florida.

This post is directed more toward Sony shooters who may be interested in the a9iii or the a1ii.
I decided to up my arsenal and received my first weapon a few days ago, the recently released a9iii. This camera is truly amazing. The form factor, which will be the same for the a1ii, is much improved. If you are interested in either of the new cameras you already know the details but one surprise to me is that the vertical battery grip fits the body much better than its predecessor. As I do with all new cameras, I took it outside yesterday to take some test shots through the ISO range to see when the noise became unusable. I’m still evaluating that but probably will do my best to stay below 6400. As I was shooting, I caught a bird out of the corner of my eye that landed on a nearby power pole. It was a Kestrel, my favorite falcon. What better opportunity to test out the camera’s pre-capture and speed boost. I could see immediately that I’d have to develop some muscle memory. Because I use back button focus, my thumb was busy on that button, my forefinger on the shutter button to activate pre-capture, and my middle finger on the new C5 button on the front of the camera to activate 120 frames per second. I imagine the hardest thing will be to press the C5 only when 120 fps are desired. A skill I hope to develop. You can’t see pre-capture at work until after the fact. My arms were getting a workout as the bird spent a long time on the power pole. Luckily, when it finally took off, I had the camera on it and the pre capture activated. When I reviewed the images, I recorded many frames of the takeoff, prior to fully pressing the shutter button. Amazing. How could I live without it! Thank you pre-Capture!

I always see the females eating among the lily pads but not the males. The males will be in the trees or hanging on the cattails but never on the lilies. Curious.
This was at Cuyahoga National Park.
She is getting more and more curious, 10 feet away , wont be long before she joins me in the hide 😲
Sony A9II +200-600mm 1/160 f5.6 iso 3200
Crazy cold, deer everywhere and hanging with good friends. A little snow was the ice cream on the apple pie.
I tried to shoot Jpeg without edit photo for a few weeks.. if I am happy with the result I will continue to shoot jpeg. The Sony a9ii has sensor's back-illuminated design also affords high sensitivity to an extended ISO 204800 with reduced noise for clean image quality in a variety of lighting conditions.
As I was photographing the deer in the center the others showed up one by one. Yes I was a little excited.

The white-winged tern, or white-winged black tern (Chlidonias leucopterus or Chlidonias leucoptera), is a species of tern in the family Laridae. It is a small species generally found in or near bodies of fresh water across much of the world, including Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia.
Adult birds in summer have short red legs and a short black bill (small and stubby, measuring 22–25 mm from the feathers, decidedly shorter than the head), a black neck (often with a pale gray back) and belly, very dark grey back, with a white rump and light grey (almost white) tail, which often looks 'square' in juveniles. The face is tinged yellowish. The wings, as the name implies, are mainly white. The inner wing is grayish with brown-tipped coverts.
Their breeding habitat is freshwater marshes across from southeast Europe to Central Asia and the Russian Far East. In winter, they migrate to Africa, southern Asia and Australia. (wikipedia)
The White-winged Tern (WWT) is a rare marsh tern in Ireland, with only one record every year or so. This adult summer bird was found on a seawatch from Dalkey, Co. Dublin by Noel Keogh, and later that morning further north at Swords Estuary by Victor Caschera. WWT is a very rare bird for Dublin.

Taken with the 10.2mp Nikon D60, refreshed from JPEG with my latest post processing workflow, for nostalgia. Loved the series of shots I took at this location, this one as I was making my way to the medieval town center in the late afternoon hence the sun was low, peeping through from above the roofs on the left side thus partially illuminating the buildings on the right and the bell tower ahead. Regrettably I did not shoot RAW back then.
I've always loved the colors coming from this humble camera with CCD sensor. Personally Nikon dropped the ball when they 1st moved from CCD sensors to CMOS, never warmed up to the colors from my subsequent D7000 and sold it after a brief ownership. This mostly boils down to different color filter arrays being used when Nikon shifted from CCD to CMOS. Modern CMOS sensors are usually optimized for high ISO and high resolution (instead of color) which is typically what the market wants.
Newest is not universally the greatest as shills will like us to believe.
Gear forums can be a good place for learning but it is such a minefield for beginners these days as forums get infiltrated with insufferable fanboi shills.
You get Nikon shills proclaiming that the Nikon Z7ii autofocus is at least as good as the A9ii which has a stacked sensor! This was coming from a fanboi shill who shot mostly landscape and hardly anything else that moves even moderately. It's like saying the Toyota 7-seater MPV is as fast as a Ferrari just because the driver never drove the Ferrari beyond 1st gear!
For beginners, best way to protect ourselves when we peruse gear forums is to look at the uploaded photos from forum participants. Oftentimes the quality of the photos and their seemingly expert proclamations do not match! Way too much "hot air" in gear forums! Fanboi shills typically only worship their preferred brand like totems with a severe lack of ability to say anything good about competing brands. After a while it’s not difficult to identify the shills from the truly skilled, honest hobbyists whom we can learn from.
