Finally managed a capture of a female Yellow Warbler !
They don't come around very often and won't stay put for more than a couple of seconds :triumphant:
Cheers, Don

Sorry about your loss. I had some gear stolen a few years back and it hurts big time. And I wasn't on vacation! Glad you were able to carry on.

Agree with what Jim said ... sucks to hear you had your D750 stolen, even though it looks like you still got great shots with the borrowed D5500. The reflection shot is awesome!

I do think the wide body 911s look nice from behind... not sure why my autocorrect tired to change that to "wife body 911s"...

Fortunately, I backed up all 3 cameras we had on a daily basis, so no pictures lost. Struggled a bit with the D5500 until I figured out where all the settings were. The person I borrowed it from shoots entirely in auto, so it took me a lot of time diving into a menu structure that isn't the same as the D750, along with lengthy explanations about why not to use auto, etc.

Another set. Really impressed with this lens even at 500mm.
Lovely set,you certainly tamed the contrast between black and white on the birds

Still loving my 200-500vr. It performs like a champ at minimum focus distance.

Tried this out at soccer last weekend. The only negative I found was zooming in and out following the action-that is seriously one gigantic turn from 200-500. That being said, I thought they all turned out pretty good. I compared them to a bunch I took last year with the Tamron 150-600 and the Nikon is a massive improvement. Really surprised by that, but it is sharper all the way around & everything I wanted to be in focus really did end up in focus.
