All shot with an FZ200. Nothing up my sleeves, never at any time did I change lenses . . .

Wow, Jock - that's an impressive reach! How wonderful for you to see the Bald Eagle in action and be able to photograph him! Not that I don't admire the Great Blue Heron. I keep thinking about getting a camera with interchangeable lenses...or maybe one of these.
