thanks for sharing; i'm impressed that you could get that much feather detail from a 200 mm focus lens. Certainly hoping that I won't need much more than 300 or 400 mm for birding.

Google Lens is pretty good at identifying all sorts of things.
A couple of years ago my wife brought home about six large photo albums of Arizona birds. All printed and mostly labeled in nice albums. We have tried to find out who took the photos, but they may have never been digitized, so nothing to go on.
The photographer had some pretty cool pictures of Harris Hawks stacking, among hundreds of other pretty nice pictures of AZ birds.
Yesterday we watched a Cooper's Hawk shadow a pack of coyotes for awhile. I suppose he wasn't have much luck on his own, and hoped to steal something from the coyotes. As the coyotes moved up the mountainside,the hawk flew to better vantage points. I think they all went home empty handed. Wildlife is on the down turn in at least the PHX Mtn Preserve.

haha, smart move. I'm impressed Google lens could identify it
