Snowy Egrets and Tricolor Heron

Got out to shoot some more with my new 500 4.5L. Very happy with this lens:

i like your shots!

looks like your "new to you" lens is working out superbly.

great shots

Thanks to both of you!

We can see you're lovin' your new "toy" Billy and we're loving the results. Excellent group of captures with a special appreciation for #s 6 & 7. The tricolor-in-flight ain't too shabby either - Keep `em coming.....

Beautiful, it's nice to see the set-up !

I always love it when people show pics of their set-up. Nice!! No wonder you are happy with the 500mm! I think we all would be! A bit over budget for me though. Of course, we will now expect great things from you!
Love the second shot and the last in particular, but a nice set all around.

Congrats on the new toy!

Glad to hear you two gel nicely Bill. The results are fantastico!

Thank you all!

I don't generally like to brag about gear and whatnot, but this is a purchase that has been a long way in the making for me, and I am very happy to have it. It will definitely motivate me to get out and shoot more again than I have in the last couple of years.

Beautiful shots. Serious lens envy here. Maybe someday....
