I just picked this lens up during holiday sales. Took it out for a half hour to make sure it works....it works....looking forward to putting this to use alongside my 200-500.
Thanks. We still have green grass but we did have snow that is just finishing melting. The Anna hummingbird stays on the southern part of the island through the winter. The Rufous migrated away and will be back in March.

Great photos! Nice lens Is it still green & hummers are still there? Vancouver Island
Wildlife sightings on night drives are hit and miss. Sometimes you drive for an hour or two and see nothing...however, we got lucky finding this African Wildcat, (not much different in size to a house cat) on the hunt. Using the guide's hand held torch as the sole source of light, I managed to capture this image.
