Frank, every year about this time, I place a 1.7 TC on my 70-200 (510mm equivalency), park myself about 15 feet from a h-bird nest close to my house, prop my elbow on the arm of a rickety old lawn chair, cradle my camera and wait. For 14 years. The shots I've gotten I'm not proud of and wouldn't dare post most of them here.
So I'm in awe of what you've achieved.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Raz.
I've obtained the 750mm equivalency by combining a Nikon 200-500 with a Nikon D500 crop sensor body. There was also a fair amount of cropping involved. The most difficult part is patiently waiting while hand holding this combination about 2 feet above the ladder, resulting in the camera being about 10' in the air.
