It may be far too optimistic, but...
I would love to spend a couple of days in maybe October shooting some big birds somewhere in the highlands. I have 5D3 and would hire a big fat grey lens (500/600mm?) for a weekend. Do you think this would work and would I get a few good keepers (given that I have no specific wildlife shooting experience, but I am definitely not a new kid to photography)? If yes, what locations and / or specific times would I want to look into?
I suppose there is always rutting deer in Glencoe, but I am not so willing to hire for that, so would stick with my own 200mm. It is not ideal but I managed a couple OK snaps already. I could buy 400/5.6L and then offload it later on around Christmas. That would work too.
WLife is not really my thing but I reckon it has to be done since I'm here.
