Great shot!
But " My House...)?! I'm absolutely sure you didn't need to sale it for "EOS-1D X Mark II // EF 300mm f/2.8L IS USM II"

Haha
That owl came back every year and just hung out on our dead end street. I asked my neighbors to not tell anyone or put the location on the internet. They could also come onto my property if they wanted photographs or just to watch it. I haven't met a person that doesn't like a snowy.

I used to work with two custom modes for three years but added a third a few weeks ago.
For that reason I got today 1/30s, f/18 instead of 1/4000s, f/7.1 to catch this heron in flight.
and a female chaffinch (?)
1/4000s, f/7.1, iso 25600

Do you mind sharing your third custom mode. I really do not use them all that much. I like using the M Fn button for multi-functions. But, right now I have the front button programed for APS-C...which I hardly ever use. Maybe I should set it up (if I can) to toggle between the custom modes.I used to work with two custom modes for three years but added a third a few weeks ago.

Several great captures on this page!

Spent an afternoon at Parker River NWR over the weekend. Lots of egrets flying around, and also a glossy ibis (not a rare bird, but the first time I've seen one there).

C1: Manual ES for BIF (1/4000, widest aperture, auto iso)
C2: Manual MS for DIF(same as C1)
C3: Av ES for macro
This is the way I do. Very convinient and fast.

Mine are all ES.
C1 (static subjects): Fv, One Shot, auto shutter, widest aperture, auto ISO
C2 (moving people): Fv, Servo, people priority, auto shutter with 1/250 s minimum, widest aperture, auto ISO
C3 (BIF): Fv, Servo, animal priority, 1/2500 s, widest aperture, auto ISO
I use M.Fn to cycle through those 3 and M mode, with the other modes restricted. I have the photo/video toggle set to enable silent shooting.

I've seen only two, and only the first was flying. This was handheld, and back then at f/8 you had to keep the center AF point on the bird.
