    I have seen more ghosts this winter at FNWR than ever before. Great capture! I posted one doimg a bank on the gallery. I didn't go up to see the blue tail. I'll bet it was a circus show :-). But that's good bc it shows that brdng is becoming popular.

    Thanks Mike. Since Nikon doesn't make a z mount 500 prime I think I will try a 400 prime with a 1.4tc. Fingers crossed!

    I think you are correct. The two look very similar and I have been seeing so many bitterns lately I was in auto bittern mode. Bitterns though don't have those white speckles on their wings.

    My first time seeing one flying. This winter is the year of the bittern for me, I'm seeing them all the time. Quite a treat.

    Thanks guys, but my mind is made up. 500 prime with a Z mount and 1.4 teleconverter. I will pull the trigger soon. I will keep my 200 to 500 zoom if I need to go smaller.

    Good luck Ed! It is too far for my 500mm, except for landscape style shots. You know I'm thinking about a 500mm prime you told me about with a 1.4 converter, but it's just like taking out a mortgage!

    Today I saw an adult bald eagle go to ground in the salt marsh, sat there a bit, and took off with something in its talons. After looking at the photos I could see it was a big clump of marsh grass. I can only assume the resident pair are starting to repair and line their nest for the upcoming...
