How is hand holding the 600 going for you? Great shots even with the distance.I also had the pleasure of watching a few Hooded Mergansers a few days ago. One of the males came up with a decent sized Bullhead. It was a little bit of a struggle for him to get it down, but eventually he did. He was rather far away, maybe 100 yards or so.

Waterfowl are still moving through my area and more are arriving each day. The past couple days were two of my favorites. Wood Duck and Ring-necked Duck. It's usually dark and gloomy by me in early spring, and it has been exactly that lately. 7D mkll / EF600 F4 ll / 1.4xlll

This morning I had a chance to enjoy some Wood Ducks lingering for about an hour. Being so unique looking, it was a treat to get many shots. Of course the background was a cluttered tangle of branches. Here are a few cropped shots.View attachment 189444

While I've enjoyed the Tamron 150-600mm, I'm yearning for the extra sharpness and light gathering power of the EF 600mm III IS.
Alan, that bluetit is wonderful.Largely confined to back garden. ...
Please fill me in on the chair blind. I've had in mind to create one so seeing one could be helpful. It needs to be as compact as possible and light. Starting from scratch with any design is a challenge.More progress with the Kingfishers. Used my chair blind today.View attachment 189490View attachment 189491View attachment 189492
