Nice looking lens, Hanke! If only I understood all those gadgets. 
I'm sure you will take some awesome pictures for us though.

Thanks Susan. That one actually caught me by suprise. I was just trying to get a close-up of it and it took off. Here is another picture that I just took about 1/2 hour ago. By this bank by my house we have a big pond that the Geese use for one of their resting grounds.

Very clear shots. I'm sure the lenses will go to good use.

Nice lense, and nice shot!
Now all you need is a 2X converter for those really long shots.

hankejp ... I love my 70-300 lens. I use it all the time. It was great when I worked in the newspaper field.
