    Thanks lads, the pics were taken in Portavade, a small secluded bay about ten miles from Sligo town. i often drive out there to have a walk along the shore and watch and photograph the birdlife.

    Don't know much about the astro lens but it gets good reviews, wouldn't fancy humping the tripod around for wildlife though.:50:

    LOL you can get portable carbon fibre ones, a little more expensive of course but extremely light it all folds down into a backpack too, well the other stuff not the tripod, it can also sit on the startracker with quite a few additional components without being too heavy.

    A few from last week at Portavade, there was a flock of Brent Geese grazing at the shoreline and they didn't get fazed at all with me being just a few feet away, that's the closest i've got without them flying off.
