Leighton Moss

[Leon]

A few weeks ago I traded in my much loved and heavily used Canon 70-200 F4,  I really wanted the F2.8 version but I dont have the funds at the ,minute so I settled on a used Sigma Version.

WHY didn't I do this YEARS AGO, having a crop sensor I'm getting good reach, and the separation of the F2.8 is amazing.  

and the price!  trading in my lens and the 1.4X converter meant that it only cost me £50! 

here are a few shots from Leighton moss a couple of weeks ago,  (why do I always get so many Robin pics?)

the rat's were entertaining, I realise they are seen as vermin but they are survivors..  

The First image is of a Marsh Harrier,  MILES away so sadly this is just a record shot so I can say I have seen one.    

5th shot, Bearded Tits, so difficult to get between the reeds..  they have Feeders set up but the day I went there were obviously not hungry. (they put grit on the feeders, to help digestion apparently)
