I do love these bad ass birds that disobey the 'rules'..!

Got this yesterday near my place. Just picked up the Sigma 150-600mm Dg Dn Sports and had half an hour to try it out before heading in to work. Was impressed with the resolution! Surprisingly the lens isn't too much of a handful to use either. It's a monster for sure, but well balanced for what it is.

This little angel came running over to me yesterday then jumped up on my shoulder. One is before, the other is after I took her off...

From an urban park near our home this morning….(I feel badly for this creature though given the general condition of the water it lives in).
To the OP, I agree….the A6000 series is a great walk-around camera esp with a smaller sized lens And takes excellent images even by today’s standards.

This was near my parent's place on the South Coast of NSW a few weeks ago. Loved this scene which popped up right in front of me, it was a lovely surprise! View attachment 21301View attachment 21302

That's awful, poor thing! It probably eases his concerns when he sees what humans were basically forced to do in the last couple of years though...

These walkways are a great idea to improve disability access, though they benefit greatly by the introduction of resting seats every 200 meters or so. There’s a tendency to make them too steep on sloping terrain. This one looks great though!

Went for a walk around the neighborhood yesterday and carried the a6700 and 18-135 lens. My area has a few man-made ponds and lakes which makes for an easy intro to flora & fauna which like wetlands.

Baby Godzilla was sunning himself, but alert enough to flee when I tried to get closer.
