Polder Glies
Not a lot of action at Polder Glies but at least I was able to shoot my first cuckoo ever. The little Barn Swallow wasn’t scared and sat at the look out so I had to move backwards to get into shooting distance.

Unbelievable combination. The D7200 and the Sigma 150-600 S plus TC-1401 does perform so fantastic. This combo results in viewing angle of approx. 1260mm equivalent in FX. These results really open the question whether one needs to spend 8 to 10k€ for a prime lens… (still on my wishlist though :-))

Some shots using the D2x with Nikkor 200-400f4 plus TC-17II. Mounted on Berlebach UNI-16 with Wimberley WH200. For the first time the European Robin came somewhat to the front. Normally that little bird is always staying behind the branches. Unfortunately the snow we had in the morning was nearly gone.

Another very nice and sunny day. A bit cold but was doable for 2h standing outside and watch the birds at the feeder place. All pictures using the D800 and the Tamron 150-600 at f6.3 on Feisol CT-3442 with Arch Swiss D4 Head.
