I finally got a chance to look through the second half of my shots from last Saturday.

    Great 2nd series Davev!! I really like the 4th shot!!

    Looks like the 5D Mark II works well for a wildlife camera especially when you shoot it handheld in the JPEG mode!! thumb.gif

How many birds do you think you had? Great sharp images!! I wish i had an auto focus lens like your 600mm!! Were they fishing closer to the lock last week or did you crop these a little?
