I had my EF-s 55-250mm lens on my XTi which is a perfect lightweight wildlife lens for hiking. 1) Standing Strong 2) The Owl with it's Surroundings 3) Peek-a-boo! _________________ My Site: www.millionflame.com Birding Gear: Canon 7D and Sigma 150-500mm OS

I was certain he'd just fly away once I got close enough, but it's almost like he wanted his picture taken! It helps to get lucky sometimes. _________________ My Site: www.millionflame.com Birding Gear: Canon 7D and Sigma 150-500mm OS
