I captured these yesterday afternoon using my A700 w/ Sigma 50-500mm F4-6.3 APO RF (Bigma). I've had this lens for a few days and I'm really enjoying it. These shots don't compare to the others in this thread, but they are the best I've got so far. :)

Here's one from last year. A closeup of a red-crowned crane (Zhalong Reserve, Heilongjiang province).
I used my macro lens for this shot.

 I've never left the macro behind. It's actually quite a versatile lens.
The bird was too close to use a longer prime. I'd like to get back there and put in some serious time with a camera.

Nice one chthoniid! Yeah, my tammie 90/2.8 macro goes wherever I go too. Just wish it would AF faster, (sometimes I have to Point and Shoot) as I sometimes don't have the opportunity to manual focus properly...LOL!!

LTTay, that last one is remarkable. It's almost an xray of the wing bone structure. Very cool.

Thanks, here are two more that I got while photographing the egrets, but I processed it under a different WB, to get something more dramatic (I hope)Shot through thick underbrush.
and this...
