Been haven't been able to find any ducks since I got my EF70-300IS. Not wanting to offend the lens gods out there I hope a bunny shot will do.

I haven't taken a Duck shot with my new 70-200 yet, I took a shot of some very small birds in my yard. I am hoping (like you) that this weill appease the gods. ;)

Beautiful first photo there! :D

I am getting tired waiting for my 70-300 to come, but I guess, in Canon's defense, it's only been 4 months since I ordered (and they recalled).../sarcasm :confused:

I'm wondering if they're ever going to begin mass remanufacturing. I would've thought 5 months would be enough...

I have a strange feeling that the diner's menu may have items added in the near future...

In order to apease the photography gods and the lens gods in particular, you should always post a shot of a duck. While I haven't seen any horrible calamity fall upon anyone who hasn't, I figure why risk it. I'm still looking for a duck.
