Rooster fight

[AKaviator]

I watched a couple roosters go full MMA today! Very entertaining. They fought to a draw!

I had no idea they had pheasants in AK.

Great pic!

Great pic!

I have some property in Eastern Oregon that I tend too, in the Spring and Fall.

Bob, great picture as always! Did your draw a moose tag in Alaska?

 

[Winchester]

Very cool, and what a great photo … you always share the best pics!

Nothing there. Alaska hasn't been to good to me in the draws lately!

Thank you so much. I'm trying to get better with my camera.

 

[Winchester]

What are you using?
I have an OLYMPUS OM-D that I'm still trying to learn.

 

[AKaviator]

I bought a Canon 90d and use either a 100-400 or a 70-200 f2.8. If the photo is poor...it's not my camera's fault!

 

[Winchester]

Yeah, that's a sweet camera!
Do you always use the Fully Auto mode or do you go Manual sometimes?

 

[AKaviator]

I do use manual at times. Right now I have the focus set as a back button, Auto ISO and set my shutter speed where I want it. For the pheasant is was 1/2000.
It's fun trying new settings.

Bob, not good. I hope you draw in Oregon.

Thanks Pete. I'm in for Wy. Elk and Montana deer. Fingers crossed. How about you?

Bob, Montana big game combo and hopefully I’ll draw it along with spec elk for our area.

It looks like that’s working very well.
I wondered how fast your shutter speed was for that

I sure miss seeing and hearing the Pheasants here. Used to be quite a few, but the skunks, foxes, raccoons and hawks have just about wiped them out. Had several hens nest on my place, but have only seen one rooster in the last 2 years. Love to hear the roosters squawking in the Spring during mating season.

A couple of still shots I got off my gopro on a midwest pheasant hunt.
