Two fine shots Regis.

IMO a couple of your better ones. You are obviously loving that 300mm. How do you compare it to the 400 DOII besides the difference in length?

Between your birds and Ed's flowers, I am constantly inspired to do better. Great images.

Both are beautiful shots and the bee shot is simply amazing!

These are great Regis! I was chasing a preying mantis this morning but didn't get anything near as nice as the bee. I had planned a trip to Hayden Lake next summer for the week of 8/17-8/24. From your dates it looks to be a week too early. Is there a variance from year to year with weather influence? Thanks for sharing.
