I photographed this American Goldfinch in the early morning light. It thankfully perched up for me while it was taking a break from feeding. Took this photo at the end of October but never got around to processing it. Honestly forgot that I had taken it. What a nice surprise 
Canon 7d2 and Sigma 150-600 C.

Awesome. I wanted to share the image, but I hate posting "ignorance" and that's all I had after my brief research!!

Just bought a new computer and am going through my files to see what I want to transfer over. Here is an image I stumbled upon. A House Wren from Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge that I took on 7/31/15. Canon 7d2 and Sigma 150-600 C. I still say this is the best affordable wildlife combo on the market.

Well, whether it is or not is somewhat irrelevant as long as you are a happy camper.
Very impressive.

Thanks Jack. The reason I said that is that the 7d2 can be had for just over $1,000 now. Sigma C is the same even when not on sale. So for just more than $2,000 I can't imagine a better wildlife combo. Gets you to 600mm with IS at 10fps. Image quality far exceeds the money spent in my opinion.Jack Douglas said:Isaac Grant said:Just bought a new computer and am going through my files to see what I want to transfer over.
