I never was very interested in shooting birds, but that was because the longest lens I had was 200mm and birds are usually too far away to look impressive using that focal length. That all changed with the addition of my Sigma 120-400mm lens. I have discovered a whole new thing! However, the lens is a little slow and only able to capture sharp shots of birds in flight when it has a LOT of light to work with. These guys were not moving very fast this morning, so perfect "sitting ducks". Yes I know they're not ducks, they're Wood Storks.
