Great Egret about to swallow a minnow

I rented an RF200-800 lens in December 2025 to test it out. I enjoyed the reach, but the autofocus was a bit slower, and the build quality is certainly not comparable to L lenses. Despite these minor drawbacks, I’m genuinely pleased with the results.

Anhinga drying wings

Anhinga’s are probably my favorite water-based bird. I wanted to say “wading bird,” but I’m not sure if that’s the correct term. I particularly love their breeding plumage. However, this particular anhinga was being a bit of a bully to a little blue and little green heron.

Least Grebe

I absolutely love watching Grebes dive; they never return to the surface where you expect them to!
