I Just thought i would jump on the band wagon
Went down to cornwall (partner had a job interview and got the job so looks like im heading down there to live)and popped to the lizzard for the coughs they gave great views. This youngster was enjoying the sun on the cliffs.

Cornawall is a hot spot for sun worshippers, my better half will be really jealous of you if you move there. Was this taken with a 500mm? Seems you can get quite close.
Yes as Mike said this is with the 600mm 1.4x on the 30D for 1344mm, but i also got lots with my 300mm 2.8 and 2x on my 1D mkII for 780mm so they come quite close and flight shots would be possible with 300mm to i reckon.
Asymmetric sun bathing, whatever next? I bet you're chuffed with this one Brian.
Excellent, well worth the trip trip to Cornwall. A little bit more space to the top would be advantageous IMHO. My blackbird had the same idea see new image
