The cutest killing machine.

I like the way you've shown the context in one photo, the bird in the other. Is that just digital zoom or two photos and an optical zoom?

Thanks. It's optical zoom all the way out from 600mm to 150mm. I was too lazy to walk back to get the entire windmill in shot.

Thanks - thought you'd have to have a huge pixel count otherwise.

Anyway, hoping to walk to a new spot when photoing birds, and not expecting it to flow off, is a mug's game :)
