What a beautiful series. I love waders... and these are quite attractive. :) Great family shot!

Reached a milestone today! My first 'decent' Blue Jay photo! It was on the verge of raining so the light wasn't ideal, but considering that up until now I've had zero respectable Jay shots, this will do.

Oh! My poor fellow! All is lost now that you've joined the Blue Jay Madness. :lol:
Congratulations and well done!

Tack sharp.

I reckon it performs as well as the 300 pro at 6 times the price the only downside being it's slow at 6.7 fully stretched

And a Northern Rough-winged Swallow. Their namesake is derived from the serrated edge of their wing feathers (if you zoom in, you can just make it out). It was starting to rain at this point, you can see a few drops in the background. There was a beautiful Barn Swallow flying around at the same time that I was really hoping to photograph, but I was getting soaked, so he'll have to wait.
