very nice djl...great shot

Thanks. Just got the Mark III yesterday and took it out for the first time this evening. Odd, though, that I could never get that close to a heron or egret with the Mark II -- must be the camera!

Must be the silent mode .

Here's a cool Northern Saw Whet Owl I found doing an evil bushwack up on the Wasatch Front here by Salt Lake last weekend.

Hi,
so only having a 70-200 you must have been pretty close, and he will have seen you.
So was he just sat still so as not to attract attention?

Great shot, great expression.

And what exactly is an "Evil Bushwack"?

Cheers

Green?

Sorry, those are the only ones that regularly frequent our garden, and that I would be allowed to post on the net!

Actually I happen to have a "Great Tit" pin from the RSPB that I wear on my Fleece.
We were in a Pub, and the wife asked what I prefered, answer "Great tits", and she bought me it.
I still dont think she has caught on (Its the last vestiges of resistance after 32 years of marriage).

Cheers
