    First pics with new R6M2

    I decided to upgrade to the R6M2 and these are the first pics I took at a local wetland centre. The focusing is a huge step up for my R, I wouldn't have been able to get the geese or the Harrier before. There is a lot to learn, but very good so far.

    These two pics are heavy crops and therefore not of the best quality, but the bird was too distant really for the 100-400, it was moving erratically and quickly and they are among the first pics I took! I think that it is a female Harrier but what variety I do not know. Any clarification or correction would be appreciated

    Great set of images.

    I think your harriers are Lapwings.

        Nice work…looks like you are accelerating up that learning curve….I tried to get some lapwings in flight recently but couldn’t keep up with their erratic behaviour…(R6 600STM). so you did well for a first time with R6m2

            Look at the beak on the lower image, that's a long straight beak of a wader, not the hooked beak of a predator. Nice images
