My wife likes birds, I like photography. So here I am, photographing birds. These were taken during a recent trip to Cape May NJ. C&C welcome. Thanks Brad

Thanks! I think these got me hooked. Now I spend early morning in the garden waiting for birds to show up.

Yea. Right place, right time. I wish I had about another 100mm on the lens. This was taken with the 300mm 4.0L.

I hope your MasterCard has some extra room on it. It's an addicting hobby and the lens is never long enough. I started off with the 100-400 then decided I needed the 500. Now I want the 600.

Thanks. I know exactly what you mean! I thought the 300 would be enough (its not!) Hmmmm my wife got me into this, think she'd be upset if I showed up with the 500?

He reminds me of me as a kid, trespassing on a lake, catching a big one and running for home!
That look on his face is priceless! Well done.

My wife is addicted to this as much or more so than I am. I say buy her a camera and see what happens. In time she will want the lens too.
