Originally posted by pid @frogfish: nice birds and beautiful shots. But if the exifs are correct they are all made with your Nikon D3s, is that right?
Originally posted by FW Birds Frogfish, your White Rumped Munia set is beautiful.

Pid : yes, I used to shoot with 2 x K5s and Sigma 500/4.5 plus 300+x1.7 and occasionally I'll still put up some shots from a year or two ago shot with those combos but now I shoot with the D3s and D800E and the guys here kindly let me stay on as an 'honorary Pentaxian'
TBH I am on other forums where there are no brand boundaries which I also really enjoy because we are all first and foremost photographers with an affinity for (in the case of this thread) long range teles (mostly for birds and wildlife).

Drew - that is one fantastic BIF shot
!
Travis - Equally superb, wonderful wingspread ! So I take it these are different species and not M & F (re. Drew's) ?
Amy - those Hooded Mergs are gorgeous !
Rob - your Goosanders are more often called Common Mergansers (though I don't think there is anything common about any Mergs)
