HAD osprey on nest beside my house, but geese took it over; had a few great years of watching osprey family grow. CoolPix.

tracking birds with a 10lb camera is getting increasingly difficult for me! I have the 6ii and quickly fell in love with mirrorless silent electronic shutter. I have that lens on backorder and can't wait to try it out
