Looking at his colours I think this is a Great Grey Shrike, but it looked much smaller.

A few from the Bird Rookery Swamp in Naples Fl. I have to say, shooting in FL really spoils you. I visit once a year and it's so much easier then New England

Your feedback most welcome ....

I've become convinced the Nikon 500 5.6 PF will be my go-to for quite some time. Called the dealer and was told its shipping has slowed down a little. Ordered my 500 5.6 PF through NPS today.

Has anyone felt the need to go through more than the first copy; i.e. have all first copies been sharp? I imagine the answer is “yes” but just wanted to check and am interested in any other feedback ya'll may want to give.

Thank you

No issues with mine - first copy is very sharp.

I haven’t seen one person say they needed to get multiple copies to find a good one. I know mine was great.

It's my most used lens. Crazy sharp! The only negative is there isn't a 600PF also

+1
the ultimate portable birders lens. Perhaps the success of the 500PF will spur NIkon on to bring one to market.

I'm curious what the distance between you and these birds were. These are exceptionally sharp images.
