While taking photos of Ospreys feeding chicks I found that a pair of pleated woodpeckers had excavated a huge hole in the net box pole! Two birds one pole. The Ospreys have two chicks and take turns fishing.

D750 Nikon body in S mode 1/2000 f/6.3 @600mm ISO 720 handheld for Osprey. Woodpecker 1/2000 f/6.3 @600mm ISO 450. Tamron 150-600 G2. Still learning the body and lens. Higher shutter speed hand held yields more keepers. I let the ISO go auto since the FF D750 does very well at high ISO's.

Thanks for looking. I really like the G2. Doesn't seem soft at 600 at all, and is scary sharp at 150mm.
