    Dippers

    Thanks for that. They do seem to use leg movements when swimming, check out this video about 50 secs into it. I would imagine four leg bands would be a hindrance at least ? http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/bird_dipper

    Dippers

    Thanks guys for replying My concern was welfare of the Dipper, insofar as multiple bands might inhibit or distress and cause long term injury. Standing for long periods in fast flowing water for instance with 4 bands does cause the bands to ride up and down pushing towards the Tibia-tarsal...

    Dippers

    Canon 7D Mk II is announced and available for pre-order

    That's interesting Roy, thanks. My two pics above show one exposed properly in ONE SHOT AF MODE and the other slightly underexposed by about 2/3 in AI SERVO MODE. Just wondering if a dark area like the deer caused the camera to jump to the snow ( the in focus part) in AI SERVO MODE because I...
