Taken on Nikon 300mm f/2.8G + TC-20E III on a tripod day. I saw this bird eating the flowers off this plant along the side of the road. At 600mm, I actually had to back-up. Never happened like this before.
I think this was the first time using this combination that I had to back away from the subject. Every other time, 600mm is not close enough.
