Thanks Paul! I can tell you that I'm my own biggest critic. I appreciate
the positive remarks from you, Mark and Ken.

Very nice. Background is better than what I'd expect from a mirror lens,
and the shot looks quite sharp in the web image. Good look at a beautiful
bird.

Yea.
Both are good captures that need no excuses for the mirror lens.
What ISO was used?
Now lets see some wing flapping!

Taken about 45 minutes ago. Rufous Hummingbird in the willow outside our
front door, doing watch duty on the food supply.
Pentax *ist D and Tokina 500mm f/8 mirror lens. Equivalent to 750mm on
the
*ist D. Handheld between 1/160 and 1/250 second.
I always enjoy this lens. Background is always a little odd. Comments
yay,
nay, or otherwise, welcomed.
