Took the Kayak out today and while watching other birds, I noticed a hummer.

1. My first ever photo of a humming bird:

3. Another first for me, a Yellow-billed Cuckoo

You've got my tools there Doug. Almost everything I shoot is with them. I love the Cuckoo. Congratulations on your first Hummingbird photos!

Thanks Rick and Diamond Lil.

I have a question for you Diamond Lil. I've been considering adding 70-200 2.8. Do you feel that it's too much overlap with your 100-400?
