Lowland White-eyes in La Union

Fatbirder's Top 1000 Birding Websites

With the recent sale of my birding workhorse, 500 f4 L IS, my remaining big white - the heavy 400 2.8 IS - gets used more often. With a 2x TC II and an MFD of 3.0 meters,
the magnification of this 800 mm combo is nothing short of amazing. The images in this gallery were all captured within a shooting distance of 3.0 - 5.0 meters,
allowing me to fill the frame even when the bird's total length is less than four inches. AF speed with a 2x TC II slows down, but still fast enough to capture
these tiny, active birds. IQ remains very decent even when shot wide open.
