I prefer to be in the bush with the animals than a crowded city.

My new 600 F4 came in last Friday, so I sat out back for a bit Saturday to see if subject would humor me. After about 45 minutes of shooting leaves & flowers blowing in the wind, a group pf sparrows flew into one of the trees but for whatever reason they wanted to stay fairly deep in the tree. It was overcast and not very bright out, but the single point AF locked right on. :)

Long story short, they became my first bird photos with the new lens. When I went to process the images, I discovered the were jpgs rather than RAW for some reason (must changed that unknowingly..??..). So... what I ended up with were these - SooC JPGs.
