Great shot - never have seen the juveniles before, we seldom even see the adults here. How are you liking the lens performance at 600mm.

I think this is the dark form of Swainson's Hawk, but I stand to be corrected. I had the ISO set to auto, which isn't what I'd wanted. Always watch your settings! I guess I was too excited about seeing this raptor, especially since he/she wasn't inclined to fly away when I stopped the car to take pictures. Taken with 7D + Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary, all at 600mm. I shot the pictures out the car window. They could be a tad sharper. I can't blame any softness on the lens since I've gotten some good sharp pictures at 600mm handheld with it.

Ditto.

Here are a few shots from my fist time out in a kayak . I saw a lot of other birds( great blue herons, black crowend night heron, american bittern) but spooked a few and didnt get ant shots of them.
