Well, it's been a week and a half since I sent my favorite lens (300mm f/4 L IS) out to Canon to be repaired after we both took that accidental dip in the creek. Like I posted in my comments, It's like having a child away at summer camp: You know s/he is in good hands and will be back soon, but you REALLY miss him/her. Despite having 4 other lenses at my disposal, which I have been using, I have been going through withdrawals for some "long shots". The good news is that I heard from Canon today and the repairs are not nearly as expensive as I had anticipated!! I think I'll have my baby back late next week or early the following week. YAHOOOO!!! Here are a few shots I took with the 300mm over this spring and summer. A female rose-breasted grosbeak off our deck.
A song sparrow down by the creek.
A northern flicker at Presque Isle.
Momma and baby killdeer at Presque Isle.
As for the eagles on the creek, I will be starting a new blog dedicated to the chronicling of that adventure. I'll let you know when it is up and running (or should that be "up and flying!")?
