I would get out before daylight and set up with some camo netting draped over me and a camera.

You are more dedicated than I.

First, that is a an excellent image. And I agree with others that you take what is available at the time. But I am curious, have you tried resizing it with something like Topaz Gigapixel? I have recently started playing with it and so far the results have been great. I need to do more comprehensive testing, but based on preliminary results I am pleased. By the way, for the printing and framing that I do, I usually shoot for 200 pix/inch as opposed to 300 that most recommend.

This heron has come to our pond daily for more than a month. He fished on our side a few times but spends most of his time on the opposite bank about 100 yards away.

That's too far for my 150-600 Tamron. I took the image with the aperture wide open so I could see what the bokeh looks like.

I processed the result in Capture One and cropped the Z7 image from 8256x5504 down to 1563x1954. That is about a 4x crop factor and it represents a field of view of a 2400mm lens. The DOF is also about 1/4th of what it would have been for the full image.

I might have done better by getting closer and cropping less but that was just not practical.

Ditto- resizing with Topaz Gigapixel for a nice and beautiful enlarged photo for printing! Beautiful capture.

Thanks but I think I would rather use a small boat.
