Again, you did such a great job with the focus. Do you shoot on shutter priority? (sorry for spamming you with camera questions; it's just that I can really appreciate your photography now that I've tried it out myself

Thank you and no problem, always happy to help with photography questions
I normally shoot on Aperture Priority since most the time here it is overcast/rainy, so low light is always an issue.
I sometimes go into manual mode so I can keep the max aperture but adjust the shutter speed as needed.
Since I shoot mostly wildlife I almost always use auto focus since things move quick but I select the focus point manually before the shot so it doesn't jump all over the place and then just pan with the action.
I also don't use auto ISO (it always goes over 800ISO and the pictures are grainy) On standby I keep it at 400 (unless it's really bright out like in summer then I bump it down to 320 or 200) but if it's partly cloudy or I'm in the shadows or it's late in the day I pick an ISO of 500. If it's overcast/cloudy/rainy I'll go right for 640ISO. I only use 800ISO+ if it's indoors, low light like a play or performance or sharpness isn't a critical factor.
I'll be changing this up a bit since I'm finally getting a new laptop that can handle editing RAW which saves a lot more detail (this laptop freaks out on me when I edit in RAW
