Yes
Great Crested Grebes, a first for me, pity they were so far away and crap light, still I thought I'd post them anyway. All taken with Canon 30D, 100-400 IS and Kenko 1.4TC, they were about 60 - 70 yards away and I leant againt a tree for these shots so apologies if they are a bit poor. I will head back on a brighter day and see if I can improve on them.

Next one is of a young swan in mid preen, they were hard at it removing a lot of their downy feathers in preparation for the new ones coming in.
