No raptors today from me, but I had lots of finches and warblers cooperating. Here's a bumblebee that posed nicely in the wonderful Colorado morning sun:

I'm just in love with hand holding my 1,000mm rig. I can shoot almost anything, given the right distance. This bee was around 15-feet away. It was hot, so I left my vest with the Extension Tube in the M3, but this was close enough for this guy in perfect light.
