Anyone using the new Canon 7D2?

Can't afford one now but this guy whom I follow has a review specifically for birding in his website somewhere:

That would be a Two-barred Warbler, a winter visitor from the north.

Terrible things to get a photo of as they are rarely still.

Don't ask which bar it was barred from or who barred it.

A few photos from a visit to Bang Poo last week:

[sometime]

This little chap came flying through the door and collided with the lounge wall.

After a while he /she recovered.

That’s me left holding the bird, Taken by my daughter Zoe.

Chestnut-headed Bee-eater. Glad to hear it recovered.

Set my camera up in the field a few weeks ago as the Cow Egrets were coming in to glean rice kernels from burnt straw. Change settings to HD if you like.....

They are Eastern Cattle and Little Egrets and they are after insects, not kernels. But nice video

Nice! Cattle Egret with one Little Egret (taking off ) and two or three Grey Heron? in the far back of the paddock. Not sure about the Heron.
