    Nice job on these Dawg. You have really gotten better with this lens since you got it, these are your best yet I think.

    Thanks Timj! I keep trying to get better but these were with a Vivitar 300mm f/5.6 TX-screwmount PRIME lens and a Sigma APO EX DG 1.4 Teleconverter. I was able to shoot some after the sun was high as I didn't have to work today...so I played around with different combinations other than the Bigma. The good sun light helps tremendously!

    Thank you for that. Yes it is warmer most days here but the changes from cold to warm happen almost daily. It can be 70 degrees one day and 20 the next and then without any warning it can warm up the next day to the 60's. You never know how to dress.
