Here's one from a trip to Minnesota last month, I was thrilled to get to see and photograph these incredible birds at close range. They really are some of the most amazing birds to observe in their habitat. Taken with my Sony a9 and 200-600mm at 500mm f/6.3 1/4000sec ISO 800. Processed in ACR and Photoshop with slight noise reduction done via Topaz Denoise AI. The nictitaing membrane in its left eye was half open so I did some cloning to fix that, didn't really hurt the shot that much in my opinion but I like it better without. Hope you enjoy it, thanks for looking.
