thanks all! glad to be able to share a bird you have not seen before. I am just getting serious about birding and lusting after the 500mm and 600mm are part of the package, which is not good. LOL

A definite down side to our "addiction", the cost. And we always want more. Trying to explain to my wife why I need another camera, pretty much falling on unsympathetic ears.

I hope I do not acquire that problem when I eventually do decide to get married. :lol:
