The last in my pheasant series this year, It'll give them a chance to

get on with their breeding without the bloke with the big white lens

looking!

You were able to get close enough with a 300mm?

Did you use a converter?

I did not use a converter for this one, only the 300 on it's own. Being a gamekeeper for the past 20 years helps refine techniques for getting close to the birds. The biggest problem I have is getting the pheasants to stay about 8-10 feet away from me.....any closer and I have to use my 70-200 with a 1.4 converter. I'm just lucky, I suppose, to have a job that gives me the time to get the birds confidence.

Majestic and silly at the same time! Nice catch.
