I have a bunch from a trip to FL I should post - what a great place to visit for birding, especially if you're not packing a super long lens. The burrowing owl below was shot with a 300mm, after a long, navy Seal-like belly crawl up to the nest area. A little fill-flash with the SB-800 filled in the shadows.

Hey Chris,

Glad to see you around! I recently was on a long island NP looking for photographs of the Eastern LI area past the hamptons and saw your site listed.

Anyway, awesome shot of the Owl. Is there supplemental flash on it?

James

Hey James! I know - been crazy here, and with new computer came a loss of Internet History, loss of habitual forum visiting, and then an aversion to having to spend even one more minute at a computer screen...but settling down again!

Yup, I think I had the SB-800 set to iTTL @ -2 for this shot.
