i have a cannon 760d which i am just learning to use , i love getting outside when i can and taking photo’s
birds can be tricky , i use AV mode with a shutter speed of around 1/2000 on continuous shooting ,
sometimes it can take a lot of tries to get a good shot and sometimes you can get it first time,
it really comes down to time spent in the field and how much passion you have for what your doing
the top photo is a Miner bird and was shot with a 150 - 600 sigma lens , the bottom shot with the pigeon and duck with a 55-250mm Cannon lens

Hi @OutsideAussie ,
Welcome to Connect!
You took amazing photos of these birds! It’s not easy to capture birds because they are always moving but you did it! I am curious which camera did you use for it? And where did you capture them? It will be very nice if you add details to the photos.
I recommend you to check this article where you can find another such great post with birds.
