Cool looking little birds with their orange ruffs. Manual focus is a struggle most anytime, but especially with a huge tele like the one you're sporting.
Wildlife are definitely one segment that benefits hugely from cropping, since it's often so difficult to get close enough (even with a 500mm) without some stealthy lurking. Even so, I think that while cropping would have strengthened this by focusing more on the birds, it isn't absolutely critical. |

This is sweet! I always wondered what a real "Cootie" looked like : )
A coot nest is on my current list of bird nests to find. |
