A great image, Karl, of certainly a very good singer. ( Despite the attention that the mirrorless equipment is generating, the DSLR's can certainly produce
fine photographs, as shown here in your very detailed Wren image. I know you use both systems, perhaps an advantage for mirrorless, when birds in flight are being photographed at 20 or 30 fps- whatever the system, always first class results, Karl) !

Thanks Paul. I sold the a9 II Sony. I used it with 20 fps and it was a pain to go through tons of identical images at home. The camera created wonderful images colorwise and detailwise but for Birds I found 24 MP was not enough as we crop almost always. I'm not as impressed with mirrorless as I originally was. If I can combine Nikon DSLR and Sony a7R4 I still have, it would create a superior camera. However, the future is the Mirrorless as all the RD money and work goes into it.

Such a cutie! I bet it was a pretty song too. Nice perky pose, beautiful background, and very pretty light.
