Thanks guys. Riley, I'm now back working with an unfinished (as usual) landscape block wall - those 8X16 guys are heavier than 3 years ago! 
So, I'll be checking my feathered friends pretty frequently.
This guy was behaving like the Downy so maybe a young bird also.

Very nice Jack.
Our boy hummy is still around, kind of unusual. For the past years, they came and got chased away fairly soon by the girls. I'm curious what their babies look like and what is their normal diet.
Keep up with both heavy weight work and the light weight enjoyment.

Click said:Nice shots, Jack. Keep posting.
Thanks click and Riley. Riley those blocks are 80 lbs. and it's like 30 C here so I keep running for cover and drinking tons. Here I am in a cool room not working.
Cog, V nice. Cooler crows than ours!

Mike it's called chronic complaining! Actually, it's more work that I hate than the heat. For me, the two don't mix too well. I like winter when it's sunny even if it is cold. I'm one of those people that benefits from full spectrum light. So to reiterate; I'm loving summer (when shooting) and not loving work.

OK I love winter when it's not cold and summer when it's not hot ;DJack Douglas said:Mikehit said:

Wonderful hawk, Candyman. So close, so much characterisation.
My shots from two days ago of an osprey out fishing. Denmark, near Hillerød.
... and it did get a good catch - but at a looong distance - se picture #5.
All with: Canon 6D, Tamron 150-600 MkI @600mm. ISO 800, 1/2000s, f/6.3.
(I would love to play with the new Canon 6D MkII - the much improved AF looks very promising).

Thank you
You really did some great shots with the 6D! I really like them
I pre-ordered the 6D II and I am also curious about the improved AF. The combination of a vari-angle screen (for landscape/city photography) and improved AF system (wilflife/birding) is great. Plus a light and small camera. I am sure the IQ quality is on par with 6D but probably improved. Maybe a bit high priced but looks to ME a great upgrade.
