Title: Sibling rivalry
Camera: Nikon Z6II
Lens: Sigma 150-600mm at 200mm focal length
Aperture: f/5.6
ISO: 280 Auto ISO (Yes, I know I shouldn’t have)
Shutter speed: 1/2000sec
Cropped, darkened the background a bit and sharpened with Nik 7 Sharpener Output.

#BirdPhotographyQuestion: Would the Auto ISO I used be the reason for the badly distorted branch in the background ? I’ve never had that before, so the only reason I can think of, is the Auto ISO. Its weird though that the top half of the branch is smooth, as expected; bottom half has lots of visual artifacts.

Nice shot Hennie! Ample detail, good exposure and the composition spot-on. Love the action. Just a suggestion; Darken the branch in the background and lighten the one in the front to keep focus on your subjects. Beautiful catch light in the eyes!
