Instead of settling into the "rainy day blues" you went for the rainy day Bluebird... and with 600 mm reach you can stay warm and dry. West of you we enjoyed a few hours of sunlight today so maybe it is heading your way.

Love the sharpness and composition. Is that a 300 + 2x or an actual 600mm lens?

For a 1/100s exposure that's a great shot. I presume you used a tripod

This was the actual 600mm, I find in poor light I do not care for the extenders that much.

Thanks for the comment
