Thank you! I appreciate your take on the message the photo means to convey. There's an attack going on, but also a kind of retreat, which in some ways scares me more. I will never hide from the Boogeyman!

Sorry for all the owl box shots... :-/ I've been kinda limited as of late.
Figured I see how the Baby Z liked the BIG magnifying glass on this one.

Thanks buddy.
I was lurking from an upstairs window looking out at the tree box. It's pretty close - approx. 25~30 ft. The image was not cropped if that's any indication. Lol!

Wow - effective focal length is then 1800mm I suppose !
Great capture indeed !

Here's another fall sunset panorama in NZ... they're getting more colourful as the evening weather gets cooler, and sunset gets much earlier...

Yes Sir, 1800mm Effective FL. Tripod definitely required for this one. Lol!
This one did raise one shortcoming of the Z50 that I don't often worry about. It sure would have been nice to be able to use a remote trigger, but the Baby Z has no port.
Thanks!

z7 and 200-500 f/5.6
the 200-500 f/5.6 no where close to the f/5.6 pf 500mm
I think no escape from buying the f/5.6 pf 500mm

Haha. The tall man behind him is slightly enjoying his freedom as well.

Pick from the last couple days, trying to break the monotony of everything being shut down, exercise, hike and photograph a bit. Work days are a bit of a grind.
Z6 and either 24-70 or 50 or 14-30 (that one I haven't used in a while).

In response to NissanPatrol, the lens is the Sigma 100-400 f5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary. I have had the lens for about 6 weeks (purchase second hand only a month old) using it for garden birds during lockdown. I am very happy with the IQ finding it better at 400mm than my nikon 300mm pf at f8. The focus aquisition is certainly quick enough for the subjects I have taken to date and there is no hunting. Just waiting for lockdown to end in order to try BIF. If I am happy at its BIF performance I will sell the 300mm as the sigma is more versatile, has better vr, and is producing better images.
