It was fun killing some time photographing these aggressive little guys while waiting for the owls to show. Even at 1/400s in low light, I was able to get a terrific keeper rate at 60fps with nearly all frames in focus. The A9 III + 200-600 combination is proving to be fast, sharp, and reliable.

Location: California, USA
Equipment: Sony A9 III + Sony FE 200-600mm Lens
Settings: 1/400s, ISO: 3200, f/6.3 @600mm, Handheld
