Further to my "Dinner Is Served Shot", here's the rest of the sequence, "Fishing", "Take Off", "Bugger Dropped it" and "Got It Again".

Individual shots, no spray and pray here.

I didn't post this series at first, but there seemed to be so much interest in the first image, I thought it best to post the whole story.

Amazing to watch these feathered predators. And then they swallow them! The first time I saw it I wanted to call rescue. Nice series...

More good news is that it's not actually contagious.

I am very impressed about A*300/4 with the K-1. I hope I can afford soon a K-1 for my A*300/4. What is your impression at f5.6? my favorite f stop on APS-C with that lens.

Aye it works just fine with the K1.

It's ok no problem, but just remember I'm from an older school generation of “f/8 and be there”.

The extra wee bit of dof allows for any focus cock ups too.
