Took a walk to the lake again this morning. I've managed to give my back a bit of a tweek so took the tripod so I wouldn't have to hold the weight of the lens at all, glad I did as the light wasn't great but not too bad today. All taken with the D3+Sigma 300/2.8 and 1.4tc

This Heron was sat there quite happy, these are cropped probably 50% or so before resizing, wish I had a nice 500 or 600mm :frown:

Thought the detail in this was pretty good as it's mostly black

#4 exellent shot (y)
 
Impressive!

Thanks for showing - would like to see the sunset and beyond type of high ISO stuff though!

Thanks again for your effort in posting these(y)
 
great set of pics
herons always look as if they're built wrong
legs not strong enough to hold up body!
 
Good set there. Herons are a nightmare to get, so well done.
Favourite is #4. A good portrait (y)
 
Thanks all.

I know what you mean about Herons looking odd Mike. When they're sat with their feathers puffed up they look far too big for the spindly legs.
