Actually my second. I got my Sigma 70-300 yesterday and went outside to shoot some birds. There was only one though (it was pretty late), so I had to make due with that.

Exposure: 1/4000 sec
Aperture: f 7.1
Focal: 300 mm

Thanks guys, much appreciated. I am noticing a small softness to the images if it is really bright and I am maxed out at 300, but I can deal with it. I love this lens :D
