A day of mixed weather, but enough sunshine for good shooting.
The Adaptamatic 300/5.6 is a very handy lens in the field. This one is going to be a favorite.
I'm not sure which of these works better -
or -
Well this ones at the zoo, but..

Another great set Luis. Some of the birds seem almost prehistoric. Do you know what they are called (Nos 2, 5 & 6) ?

Just out of curiosity, are your hands made of stone, or do you carry a tripod?
I am flabbergasted by the quality of your telephoto work.
That is, once I get past the perfect exposure and gorgeous color, I notice the sharpness and decisive moment.

All my stuff save for "product shots" are handheld. I hate tripods.
I put all the credit with Pentax, that IS is superb, essential for all this really. My hands aren't steady at all, I shake.
