Recent shots from my backyard and around the Sunny Coast

I recently purchased a new lens, Sigma 150 - 500mm, and have been out and about a few times, enjoying the results in comparison to the old Tamron 70-300.

Shots taken in local wetlands areas here on the sunshine coast, queensland. 

Hope you enjoy.

Thanks Jackie,

It's a great spot, dozens of species visit every day, so I'm very lucky. It makes it hard to leave to go somewhere else. ;)

Yes, super pics, and is there room for me there?  I'd love to live in an area like that.
