I'm very new to this Forum and hope to shortly have my own 100-400 lens on my A6500.

How far are you away from the beautiful robin when taking the photo and what lens are you using?

Robins and Mocking Birds are birds that generally you can get quite close to at times. Often they will be half the distance of standard bird distance.

Hi Keith -

I was probably about 30 feet away, using the FE100-400mm. I didn't notice the bird was standing on 1 leg until I cropped and processed it.
