I just got a Sigma 80-400 OS, it's a big heavy lens.

First shot with it, ruby-throated hummingbird.

Wow, that is something else. You probably have probably already mentioned it in other posts, but what camera is it on?

That's a great shot Joe, how far were you from the bird?

Thanks Tony, I was 15-20 feet from the bird.

Great pic. I didn't know hummingbirds had talons.:D

Just so you know CSS, my girlfriend loves photography. We both really enjoy your pictures and I have promised that when I come up with some extra money that I will buy her the exact setup you use. I bought her a Nikon S6 last month that takes great pictures so long as you can get right up on the object.
trust me

CSS,
I think you should include your equipment list in your signature. That way, we wouldn't have to ask, and you wouldn't have to answer!:D

I'm still waiting for the calendar, by the way.
