Went out for the first time in a few weeks. Depression sucks, but getting out with the camera is great therapy.

4 Mudbug in the "crick"... This little fella is only about 3" (7.62cm) long. I tried to sell my Sigma 50-500mm so that I could get a 150-600mm, but the buyer lowballed, and I couldn't swallow the 80% loss on a lens that's less than a year old. I purchased a refurbished Sigma 1.4x extender to get the extra range. It could have been a better shot, but it's going to take some getting used to, and the critter was under water. With the 50-500mm at 500mm, it requires manual focusing due to loss of light with the extender. f/9 1/640 ISO 320 700mm
