Mousebird - I hope its the correct name
First one for me to photograph - huge crop.
The lens is long - but not THAT long!

I was also speaking of the older non-VR 300. I have never even seen the PF.

I am glad you are enjoying your new lens.

Peter - I really hope we can see one another when you come down to Cape Town in December. I am going to Malgas Island 11 - 18 December. And I hope by then I know a bit more about photographing birds... On the other hand - I will be shooting Cape Gannits for a week - should know after that experience

Great opportunity Elsa
I suspect you already know everything you need to know, the rest is "just" practice... I think...

Peter - I hope I dont. Otherwise the challenge is no more...

I was privileged to see Griffon Vultures on several occasions when visiting Spain a few times over the years, some by looking for them armed with big lenses and some while hiking in the area.

Here's a few of the images of these amazing birds.
