PS: All pictures taken with my D90 with the 18-200 VR lens. Since it was a pretty nice day, most of the pictures were set at Auto WB, but I did play with Sunny and Cloudy settings for some of them. Also, I mixed around from using shutter priority, aperture priority and some manual as well.  | I'd say the above image is your best one, as it tells a story. You're off to a good start. For wildlife photography, you generally need to get in close, so try to get in closer.

I was also shooting with my a700 + Minolta 200mm f2.8 which I think may be sharper than the 400mm f2.8 though.

^^ lol nah, I sold it. Now I have a 40D with a 50 F1.4. Went from 500mm to 50mm *that's what she said*  It's more of my kind of shooting set up anyway. I've used the 500mm like 4 times last year, since then it's been collecting dust. I like my set up now much more. Plus I still have my 70-300mm IS if I ever need some sort of zoom

The 400mm f5.6 is a super sharp lens. We should be getting one in the rentals dept soon, along with a 500mm f4 IS.

I went to Reifel today! Beautiful day! Lots of birds, and people out today! i don't have anything as good as Senna or 77Civic, but here are a few snaps from today.  
Can't go there without a duck picture..  
Generic Great Blue Heron picture.. 
Anyways, thanks for looking! Leave good or bad comments if you like. I didn't really edit them much, pretty much straight out of the camera. Shot with 40D + 70-200mm F2.8 Non-IS.
