Swan and Heron
Lens: PENTAX D FA 150-450mm f/4.5-5.6 DC AW Camera: K1 Photo Location: Gallinas Sewage Ponds, San Rafael, CA ISO: 800

Took my brand new 150-450mm for a walk. It weighs a ton: no way to hand-hold, and it's literally a pain in the neck lugging a tripod around, but I'm pleased with the results.

Juvenile (?) swan, and juvenile black-capped night heron.

Hi Susan and thanks. Credit goes to the lens. The swan photo is very heavily cropped, yet there is still detail showing the serrations on the bottom of the bill. Impressive lens.
