Wondeful!

Kind of Mr, i think i was like 1cm to dam close.

Everything came out blurry and not sharp, especially the eye for being that close & the shutter wasn't slow enough for motion blur. These 2 were the only decent ones out of them so im ditching the 200-500mm and im gonna put the 70-300mm kit lens on for this spot, she should be back.

Still looks very good in the second one, but yes, 200mm makes close up images a challenge unless the lens is designed for it. I can take a pic at 400mm at 10" with my Tamron. My 150-600mm Sigma, I have to be at least 10 feet away.

I thought she had the look of a cuckoo...they are very devious birds.
