It says Snowbirds in the title , and there's only one. And he looks like he might have a bit of a chip on his shoulder. Nice capture.

Thanks, I guess the lettering wasn't big enough to get my attention.

These would be good in the 300mm plus lens club... even though the Tammy is a little short, they are the kind of image that gets posted there. I post images taken with my 60-250 there quite often. Also the Yardbird club would love to see them as well.

That Tamron looks like it gives you better magnification than my DA* 60-250, does the barrel extend as you focus?

down here in az, the only white on our snowbirds is their hair and they are one vehicle rolling traffic jams. I'm already looking forward to april when you northerners can have them back....

you'd be shocked how much time is cut off my commute every morning when the migration north begins...

No, it is internal focus.

Sounds like you need to move closer to work.
