    Thanks, CookieS. I'm currently out of town and I can't check it for sure, but most probably I used a Canon 500mm f/4 IS for that shot. I'll be more precise once I get back in town next week.

    Yep, I confirm. That picture was taken with the Canon 500mm and a Canon 5D.

    Hey, Ric, don't you hate it when a perfectly good mosquito shot is ruined by those pesky birds ? mwink.gif:D
