Red-Winged Blackbird on the WindRed-Winged Blackbird on the WindThis is my first post of a bird after upgrading my camera body to the Canon EOS R5 Mark ii. I still need to upgrade my memory card but I had fun adjusting the new camera and fine tuning it in the field. This red-winged blackbird gave me the perfect first bird-in-flight opportunity to test the auto focus system. I love seeing these birds in the Spring as they signify warmer days ahead.
