Hi!

I try not to post non-Pentax pics here, but I thought some of the
twitchers here might like to see this. A nest of Blackbird chicks
resides just inside the roof of our house and the mother flutters to and
fro bringing food and taking out the garbage (old feathers). I found a
very close vantage point trough my son's window. Here she is filling the
frame, just about to dart up under the wooden eaves...

Fascinating. So you said in another post your were hanging out... I wonder how you did not scare the bird ;-). Now, I've seen the 70-200/2.8 L once or twice - it scared me just fine - the beast of a lens... ;-)

Anyway - well done!

Boris
