          Beautiful capture. Your certainly get good results with the 150-600 on a mirrorless body. I got rid of mine before switching from 6D to R which makes me wonder how it would have performed.

                For such a lovely bird ...................... whoever named it Godwit? Probably the same lacking in imagination idiot that named the Smew!

                  Sometimes you wonder how birds got named.

                  One that confuses a lot of people is when there is a lesser........... Why isn't it greater rather than great?

                    Thanks for all the kind comments I'll post the original image later. It's quite good but decided on the crop as I liked the head/beak detail.

                        The genus Limosa was introduced by the French zoologist Mathurin Jacques Brisson in 1760 with the black-tailed godwit (Limosa limosa) as the type species.[6][7] The genus name Limosa is from Latin and means "muddy", from limus, "mud".[8] The English name "godwit" was first recorded in about 1416–17 and is believed to imitate the bird's call.[5]​
