    Wow! Fantastic shots there John. Lately I have been enthralled by the Bird Photography on Dgrin.com, in the Nature/Wildlife section. Last thing I expected to find here, though the quality of the photography does not surprise me in the least.

    Thanks for these.

    Thanks again.

    Alan, the 400 f5.6L is sharp throughout. Depending on some variables I shoot anywhere between 5.6 and 8.0 but am at 5.6 more than Im at 8.0 simply due to my desire to keep my SSs high, typically 1/1500 to 1/2000th. That particular day the sun was in and out every couple minutes and the birds were at times in cover so I left my metering mode in AV and f5.6 to ensure I kept my shutter speeds up for fear of losing a swoop chase or takedown to motion blur.
