I would look no further than a Sigma 150-500. It is a superb lens for birding, needs a fair bit of light and it's quite heavy, but image quality is excellent. The 55-300 is superb too, very sharp, but it's not long enough.
The images below were shot with the 150-500, through a double-glazed window.

nice shots there..also your web..is that a good template to use? have started with wix but like the simplicity of your web there..
for birds I use a DA 300 and AF TC 1.7 if needed don't think you can get sharper than that one.and not so heavy to handhold...

Hi all thanks for the welcome...I'm in western Denmark near the ocean so lots of storm pics and wild seas.. about 100km south from Ålborg
not sure if there is Scandinavian forum,not many Pentax users in Denmark that I know..hard to even see something to try out here...
but I like English better since I come from there....
hope to get a Wix site together soon with my photos..hardest part is organizing everything.....
cheers Shanti

Hi just joined here,also member on pentaxforums.com,but this is more local(Europe).
Been doing photography for 40 yrs now..from processing my B&W work for many exhibitions in various countries,to working with digital the last 12 yrs or so.Have been OLY user til now as 4/3 is pretty well dead,and Pentax seemed the best solution for what I want to do now, and within my budget
Having done abstract for so many years, I am working on more nature/birding related themes now.
Just got a K5II with kit lens and a DA300 (which I love) and looking for something in between as my ad says.Will use Pentax for more tele work as the crop factor is usefull(and lighter lenses).
Cheers Shanti
