Newly acquired Sigma 150-500 on K20D - even more recently acquired fat balls and basket in my parents back garden - having already spent a fortune and not seen a nuthatch before I was blessed...

Very nice....I've just bought a 150-500 lens and it's a fabulous bit of kit, great for birding.

Nice shot

I seem to get some of my better shots when visiting my parents garden - must be a 'parent's garden' thing

K10D, K5 plus plenty of clueless enthusiasm.
