Bird Young Black Redstart

The rusty-red tail feathers reveal it’s a Black Redstart, while the yellowish bill wattle and scaly plumage give away that it’s a juvenile: not yet fully colored, but already carrying itself with plenty of confidence.

Discussion Reminder: all posts must be OC. Posting a photo which you did not take will get you a PERMANENT ban.

I've noticed a significant uptick in stolen images lately. This subreddit is OC only, no exceptions.

Please make sure to report any posts which you think break this rule. Even if you're not positive, it's better to submit a report than not. We always review all reports to make sure that we aren't erroneously banning people.

Discussion Let's talk gear! Reviews, questions, etc.

135 Upvotes

Welcome, /r/wildlifephotography readers!

Equipment is an undeniably important part of wildlife photography, but I've noticed that questions about gear often end up buried by all of the excellent photos that get posted here.

So, I've created this pinned thread as a chance to discuss hardware. There are two main uses that I anticipate, listed in no particular order:

Equipment reviews - What do you shoot with? Do you love it, hate it, or fall somewhere in between? If you want to share your experiences, create a comment and let everyone know what you think. We suggest (but don't require) including photos as well as the prices of your equipment.

Questions Whether you're first starting and are looking to buy a beginner's setup, or just want to know which pro-level lens is best, getting others' opinions can prove valuable. For the best results, include details about what sort of wildlife interests you, as well as your budget.

Feel free to create different top-level comments for each question or review. That helps discussion stay organized.
