Manual focus for this one, my AF wasnt able to catch it because it was to tiny. Happy with the IQ overall because it was manual focus and the ISO (20k) due to the dim light under trees in forest. Yes I had nothing else to do (with the 150-600) as there was no bird ...

Little bittern - Čapljica by Bojan Žavcer

- manual focus

The little bittern or common little bittern (Ixobrychus minutus) is a wading bird in the heron family, Ardeidae. Ixobrychus is from Ancient Greek ixias, a reed-like plant and brukhomai, to bellow, and minutus is Latin for "small".

This bittern is native to the Old World, breeding in Africa, central and southern Europe, western and southern Asia, and Madagascar. Birds from temperate regions in Europe and western Asia are migratory, wintering in Africa and further south in Asia, while those nesting in the tropics are sedentary. It is rare north of its breeding range.

It is a very small bittern; measuring 25–36 cm (9.8–14.2 in) in length, 40–58 cm (16–23 in) across the wings and weighing 59–150 g (2.1–5.3 oz). It is among the smallest heron species. It has a short neck, longish bill and buff underparts. The male's back and crown are black, and the wings are black with a large white patch on each wing. The female has a browner back and a buff-brown wing patch.

After several weeks of gloriously hot and dry weather, today saw rain and cooler temperatures. This tiny spider on our laurel bush didn't seem to mind. Taken with a manual focus Tokina 90mm f2.5 plus the macro extender.

Manual focus and exposure with this Laowa lens. But the lens allows me to focus very, very closely to the object.

These two tools could be an ode to my grandmother and mother. *

This one was taken on the same morning as the photo of the bridge I posted two days ago. It is not the sharpest picture there is since I used a manual focus lens and had to react quickly.
