Here's a Cormorant which I photographed while on the Barn Owl Workshop with Nigel Pye. This bird had just had a swim in a small pool and is drying himself off with a brisk shake 
I hope you like this one!

Excellent image considering the 2x teleconvertor, what do you find is the sweet spot of that lens and the 2x.
Cheers Gareth

Hi Gareth, use this lens at f/8 and that keeps it nice and sharp. The long focal length keeps the background blurred even when the aperture is stopped down so far. I would prefer a Canon 500mm or 600mm of course, but I can't quite afford one yet

Excellent shot Mate

Thanks mate, it was 1/800 sec @ f/8 with ISO 320
Wonderful image and excellent timing !! Love the DOF.......
