Took a trip to Huntly Meadows yesterday.  My first time there.  It's located in Alexandria, Virginia and is part of the Potomac River eco system.

I was absolutely blown away by the variety of birds and wildlife.   Definitely a new favorite wildlife refuge that I will visit often.

Enough about that, here are some photos I took using my Canon EOS R6 and Canon EF 500 f/4L IS USM lens.  I used a Canon 1.4x III teleconverter off and on.  

I have have many Canon camera bodies (and a few Nikon's) in my days.  The Canon R6 is without a doubt the best camera body I have ever owned!

Enjoy the photos!
