these are wonderful ! I especially like the last one with the little cute feet..
the 3rd one - I wonder - one would think it is the classic bird shot with a low DOF so the bird pops out of the background - but i seem distracted by the out of focus tree, the 2nd shot with tree in focus seems better in comparision - I don't know , i'm just rambling and trying to learn - is there one best way to do this ?!
Super shots Troy. I like #2 just for the bird's pose, sort of cheeky:D #3 the bird really stands out, yet has natural background. They are all wonderful shots, just like those two the bestthumb
you stole my bird!!! it's ok though coz u made him look so good!!!!
i got a tripod also for the holidays, but i havent yet used it for i cant figure out how id use it in the field to track bird and shoot at the same time....
seems after you move the camera, it settles somewhere else...

Haven't really, it's usually a hit and miss situation. I do not have the gimbal mount I want yet so for now I use my ball head and keep it on the loose side so to be able to track flying birds. That's all assuming I set up in the right area. I always used my Monopod before so I have become accustomed to using it in that way. But from experience I know it's worth the effort to use support, images are so much more sharper don't you think?
Nice job Troy. I think theres a place for both types of shots. Only bird, and bird with background. The problem with some background shots is that the background can easily distract from the bird. I think yours did a pretty good job of avoiding that.
