Love these! My husband gifted me with my 90D for our 20th. I love it! It's so quick and takes beautiful pics. Glad to see you are enjoying yours as much as I am!@RoyalChick suggested I find some photography contests to be inspired for photos, in my new hobby! So glad I found this thread and looking forward to looking at all of the photo's shared here.
I just received a Canon 90D for my birthday in August. Here are some of my favorite photo's so far! Hopefully I will continue to improve!

Thank you! I love mine too, but I have a hard time getting crisp shots, very few are as good as I would like. Most of my pictures are the full 250mm of my lens, so that might be part of my problem. I might have to micro adjust my lenses. That and get a lens with a longer focal length.Love these! My husband gifted me with my 90D for our 20th. I love it! It's so quick and takes beautiful pics.

We used to have a pet Mynah bird...his name was Jimmy and he said some very inappropriate things...lolMynahs in my yard feeding their brood. They had 5 chicks this clutch. View attachment 2834861
I use a Canon 80d but I think nikon is better value. For wildlife generally the longer lens the better. I think the bare minimum and most budget friendly lens would be a 250mm lens and the 55-250 IS STM is a good starter lens. But 400mm is definitely more ideal for wildlife, they just cost a lot more. You can get good shots with a 250 you just have to get a lot closer than you would with a 400mm.Seeing as there are some pretty good photographers on here I might ask a question.
What camera and lense setup would you recommend for wildlife photography. A lense which can do long-ish distance shots and close range as well.
I've always heard Canon is best but I don't know. Up until now I've only had my phone to take pics.
As you can see, it doesn't have a great zoom capability nor does it focus well once zoomed.
Dslr is probably my best bet.
This is just an example photo to show what could've been a great shot if only the zoom and focus had allowed it.

You've posted some very nice pics. Focus and shutter speed have a big affect on the quality of an image. I try to use the fastest shutter speed I can, that will depend on how bright it is outside though. I shoot in shutter priority 95% of the time (this is where you set the shutter speed and the camera adjust aperture and ISO automatically) and I always try to shoot 1/400 or higher. For anything moving fast I like 1/1000 and for birds in flight I like 1/2000 but it has to be very bright to get that fast.Thank you!
