Little Heron in Low Light

[Bobby Kintanar]

The light was not good, and this Little Heron flew low and I thought the D500 would not be able to grab focus on it because of the background, but to my surprise, the D500 and Niko 200-500 Combo using Group AF just clung to it with a tenacity I would expect only from the really top models from both camps! I have lost several opportunities like this before because my other camera would focus mostly on the background, but not this time. :-)

Settings: ƒ/5.6; FL- 500.0 mm; 1/2000; ISO 6400; Hand-held - No flash:
