Pheasant
A few weeks back, I purchased a DG Vario 100-300mm f/4.0-5.6 Mk. 2 lens for use with my LUMIX G9. I wanted a few things from this lens; more reach to capture very isolated compositions in landscapes, the ability to loiter at a more discrete distance for candid street photos and to have a go at wildlife. This morning we had a rather unexpected visit from a Pheasant in our garden. The bird was very docile and compliant; an unusually easy opportunity for my first attempt at a ‘proper’ bird photo.
