Another bird that came within minimum focusing distance of my 600mm f/4.  This Bell's Sparrow was one of several that were on territory singing in January of 2019.

Canon 7D Mark II, Canon 600mm f/4 IS II, ISO 500, 1/2000 @ f/6.3.

I had to crank the shutter speed since these guys run around very quickly.

Regards,

Terry

A beautiful close up view of this sparrow. The detail just jumps out at the observer. I think we can see every feather in view. Well done, Terry!
