Hi Dave, I think number 1 is a Chaffinch female and number 2 a Greenfinch, although it seems a little lacking in colour. :)
PS. How are you getting on with the 70-300, I really like mine. :)
Hi Rolf thanks for your info, the second one the greenfinch was actual that pale, thought it might have been a female or a hi-bred, Oh the lens only had it about a week, with the weather being what it is hadnt had much use but what I have I have had good results it does prefer bright high contrasting areas, found thew macro manual very useful too.
Would have liked to have seen a tripod mount on it thou
Yes, although it is quite light, when the lens is fully extended the camera is very front heavy. :)
I was using it with the EC-14 teleconverter yesterday, mostly hand held and managed to get some reasonable results, all at high ISO though. :)
