I use a Nikon D7200 with the updated 80-400vr lense for bird related photography and sometimes notice after shooting the some areas on the bird)s) the white is blown out somewhat while other white areas are not. See example of one I took last year, looking for tips as to make adjustments during shooting to reduce or even stop this from happening. Heading to Newfoundland in a couple of days for 3 weeks of photography, looking to improve on my technique. It happens when shooting icebergs on sunny days as well.
Atlantic Puffin: Notice white blowouts on upper breast, their are some smaller ones on other parts but this gives you and idea.
