20150711 184 Belted Kingfisher.jpg

Ottawa West

I was using my D7200 DX camera and internal 1.3 crop for a total crop of 1.95. In addition I decided to try adding a 1.4 T.C. as the light was good; thus giving an equivalent 35 mm focal length of about 1,100 mm. I was shooting hand-held, but was able to support my arms on a railing. The, as posted, images are cropped an additional 40% in P.S..

Nikon NIKON D7200,Nikkor 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D ED VR AF
1/1600s f/8.0 at 550.0mm iso720 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Great catch, Hank.
We saw a few of these in our recent visit to Ontario, too.
