Website loads for me. I had the Tamron 600mm on a Nikon D7100 but not happy with it so I returned lens. Bought the Sigma 600mm, that one is so much better.

Skunks are your friends when it comes to grubs. I had the same thing a few years ago. I tried chemical first but it done no good. Mine was so bad a badger moved in and got them out. They put their head under the sod and pushed and raised their head every few inches. It looked like a plowed field when they got done. I waited until there was no more activity then took a old riding garden tractor lowered the mower close to the ground. That busted up the sod, then I took a piece of chain link fence and dragged it many times. I added some grass seed and dragged it again. Of course it ruined the mower but it was about wore out anyway. Now you can't see any damage and no more grubs.

After the bird flew away I found I had to set the camera from F9 to F5.6, that's 4 stops before it was set right in manual. I was shooting through a patio window which was tinted and not the cleanest so that didn't help. Lucky I got anything but the D7100 is a fantastic camera for the price.

Feeding a young bird or one that cannot salvage for itself. A bird will also feed one of a different species.

Thanks to all who understood I was asking for help to improve this photo, nothing else. For the rest of you I know what to do and how to set a camera. I would rather get a poor picture of a very rare bird than none at all. When I did try to reset the camera the bird flew away. My small movement scared it away. I don't have a camera for every window and lighting condition but I do know birds and to get a few shots fast. I only print 4x6 bird pictures so I'm staying with jpeg it's faster in burst mode. This was the first time I had the camera set to raw.

This is a rare albino redpoll. Nikon D7100 camera was on manual and set wrong for low light but I did get a few pictures. I do have a raw photo but too large to upload.

Nest gimbal is not much good in cold weather, it gets too stiff.

"A not so smart person keeps talking until they convince themselves and others they are right" I'm not sure this is word for word but it was said I think about a month ago by a politician.

I had the Tamron 600mm on a D7100. It was soft past 500mm. so I returned it. I now have the Sigma Sport which I am very happy with.
