feathered friend
While on bird watching assignment at a wildlife reserve in Skagit County I managed to capture this song sparrow, who was following me around while I was taking pictures of other birds.
I shot this with my 400mm f2.8 with a 1.4 extender.

Awesome shot. Very clear, looks like that extender is doing a fine job.

Very Nice Capture Jim, Nicely composed and presented. I just bought a Canon 500mm f/4.0 I'll receive it next tuesday; I can hardly wait to try it for Birding.
Thanks for Sharing this Chewys Dad.

The sparrow is a bird so common, I think I've forgotten how to see them. I looked at this photo, blinked and reformed immediately. Memo to self: looks at sparrows!

Is that your new photo assistant? I'm sure he could help you with the bird's eye views! I can easily see your shot in a book or an encyclopedia.

He was following you because he wanted to pose for the (in)famous Jim Bryant, LOL! Great photo, love his expression.
