A couple of recent examples of birds, and some more exercise of my new lens…
My wife and I went to the Fundy Trail a few weeks ago, just outside of St. Martins, NB. We found a wonderful fruit tree (apple?) with much buzzing – turns out that there were about 5 hummingbirds (ruby throated) having a feast. Out came the lens, those are small birds – would have been nice to have the 1.4x TC! I am glad for the 15MP of my 50D – the following photo is about a 50% crop of the original.
I also returned for more Osprey photos, and got another good one – looks similar to the first – oh well – nice birds!
I also had a few issues with my LowePro Compu-Trekker AW, and LowePro was great about replacing it – I now have a Pro Runner 350 Aw – in my opinion it is a more refined version of what I had – a little smaller, but I think they learned from their previous product and made it better – go LowePro!
