Tree sparrow

Much to cold for me to venture out today so I set up the tripod by the patio window and replenished the bird feeders, didn't have to wait long for my first visitor to come along and have its fill!.

nice detail captured despite relative aperture slowness; IMHO as you shot with sp, I'd opt for a faster aperture in order to blur bg a bit more.
I've been a bit curious about the no macro version of this lens. Is it yours' version too ?

Mine is the macro version Nuri, the non macro 70-300 F/4-5.6 Di VC USD is not available in Pentax fit!.

Thanks for your comments
