The recent sunny weather has made things a bit easier at long last. ISO at manageable levels!

Don't think so. I'm not certain but do you get siskins where your are? (I've never seen one, we don't get them here, I'm just looking at pictures).

yes we do get siskins - could be a female (I've only really seen the males and they are more colourful)

We have a sparrowhawk around at the moment. I'm scaring him aware if I can as we have sparrows nesting in the corners of all the houses down our close

Well, I ventured forth with the G9 and my new Leica 100-400, a couple of 'ordinary' images below. I think it's going to be good (it better had be!) when I get the correct settings sorted.
Could I ask the M4/3 chaps - when you use shutter priority, what sort of minimum shutter speed do you use with the 100-400? Thanks.

An unfortunate coot chick I'm afraid, the gull flew in with it a few moments earlier.

The wood pigeons have fledged this morning, almost gave me a heart attack when I went into the back garden this morning!
They're still ugly little blighters even though they've feathered up.
Taken with a 400mm and 1.4tc on a ridiculously low shutter speed so couldn't get them all or both in frame.
and it's sibling

They're 500000000% uglier with no feathers and a week old. I'm amazed the parents don't disown them!
