I was out shooting some pictures & thought I should go home & make breakfast when I turn in to my neighborhood & this owl flew across the street in front of my car.

Amazing good fortune and reflexes! Shot through the car window or you pulled over?

Was this with your new 100-400 lens?

I don't have a new 100-400mm, 😂 just the one I've been using now for some time but I did shot a couple of shoots through the car window then very quietly got out and got this shot, so yes I pulled over😂

But... I did break down and buy a new Canon R7... I got it and the EF-EOS R adapter yesterday and this shot I took this morning through our front window

Jim,

Can you identify the bird?

It’s beautiful. Is this with the R7?

Do you see anything better in the focus compared to the 7D II?

My Canon R7 is amazing... I has a setting for pano. This is right out of the camera but I had to resize it 2 times.
It 45 MB then 4.4 MB now 1.07 MB

What a wonderful bird. This is the first time I have seen a flicker. I didn’t realize that “Flicker” was the name of the bird! It’s a woodpecker and most handsome!
