This squirrel came running towards me with a mouthful of nesting/den material. It then ran up a large fir tree that was just 5 feet away from me. Squirrels use old cavities in trees that are often abandoned by woodpeckers, but they will also build nests out on branches.

Just saw it coming at the last second, so it was underexposed by a couple of shots, even at ISO 12,800. Heavy crop,

I rented the TC 1.4 yesterday but I'm not really convinced by the quality. If I compare my results with the photo of the Kingfisher it almost looks like a different lens. The R5 makes a lot of difference in this case I think. I'll keep my options open for now and will probably try out a RF 600 or 800 F11. Also consider the Sigma 150-600 but it's so heavy.

From a perch in a Douglas Fir tree about 250 feet high at edge of the ocean.

I must be doing something wrong here, my R6 and 100-400 can't be so much different....I hope

Most of the posters on FM are VERY good at what they do. That is the value of the forum to me at least because I can see how much further I have to go. Having said that what you also don't see is all the discarded images.

I think he’s questioning the height of the perch in the tree because it could perceived that you said the perch is 250ft up the tree, but I think you meant you were 250ft above sea level.

Or that’s where the eagle was

The perch IS 250 feet up in the tree. There are many Douglas Firs around here that height and higher.

Coast Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii menziesii) commonly reach 250 feet tall and 5 to 7 feet wide, though maximum heights can reach well over 300 feet and diameters can reach 15 to 18 feet.

Must be a pretty heavy crop then if you are 250ft away with 400mm.
