Two Birdies.. Well one birdie and one fancy chicken?
I shot these over the weekend
Picture 1. I think I need to get my head around getting a correct depth of field as I think the left part of his plumage is soft. The lighting was really hard as he was in the undergrowth when I shot it. 
Picture 2. This is just about a full image with minimal amount of cropping. He was just about too close. 
Any suggestions on how these could have been better? And this is where I met the leprechaun - He told me to burn things
gotta get me one of those lenses!!

John,
My suggestion is: Surrender that lens  and geting the 70-300G  Birddog114
VNAF, My Beloved Country and Airspace
Yeah I was thinking of dumping it and going back to the 70-300G as it clearly is not cutting it quality wise. And I know AVKOMP would give me a quick $500 for it too.

Way too true. I might steal the bio of one of the other users " way too much gear, not enough talent"

Thanks for the comment. The lense was a Nikon 300mm AFS-II 2.8

Thanks Craig. I think that look should be called the " I mean business" look.

Thanks Jethro.

Thanks all for the feedback. Yeah I'd love a VR version but I first have to get those 6 numbers and the supplementary right.
