Both images:
Rebel XSi, Canon 28-105 USM II @ 105 mm + TC Kenko 1.4 300 pro
Manual mode, f/4.5 , 1/250, ISO 400
Canon Speedlite 580 EX II -2/3 stop, H synchro

C&C welcome!

Mr RBW visited us also today, but he first was very shy - this is a bit blurry because Mr stayed far away, especially for the the 28-105!

Then he became more confident and stepped up to the plate!

Good work. You do need a little more reach, but these birds get accustomed to you and come fairly close.

Thanks - I hope the 70-200 will allow me to do better when it comes back from calibration, although I could change it for a 100-400... later!

Either lens will do well at this range.
