This is one of the first bird photos I have attempted. It's harder than I thought it would be. It doesn't help that I am using a cr***y lens (Sigma 100-300 DL).

Nice shot Tim.

That lens doesn't seem so crppy to me.

Thanks, James. This was the only one out of about 8 that was salvageable.

You did well. His face is nicely in focus and that isn't always easy to do with all the grass in front.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments. Bird photography is much harder than I ever expected. It's like those little buggers know they are being photographed but won't sit still!
