Nice one.

He does look a tad angry. Nice shot. What equipment are you using?

Thanks again everyone!

Thanks! Nothing special - Nikon D850 and the budget Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary. I also carry around a Nikon Z6 for landscapes and sunsets.

A 600mm would be nice. My longest is a 400mm

This Sigma is definitely in the "budget" category, put pulls above it's weight. It's sharp enough, it's light weight so you can hand hold it, it's affordable, and it comes in a few different mounts. Recommended, as long as expectations are set. It doesn't disappoint.
