Impressive shots Peter!

Visited the local lake again and we saw two sea eagles and lots of other birds - shot with 70-200mm so unsurprisingly, it's heavily cropped:

Fanie - what lens did you use

BIF was done with 70-200 vr1, the first two with 300 f2.8 with TC fitted (either 1.7 or 2x)

Elsa I will have to try it out first to see how it compares with a 300 with 1.7TC, if it does not give more contrast and sharpness I would only gain a zoom function and some more hardware to pack 😊
