Testing the repaired lens

Stopped by TCP (Tuckahoe Creek Park, Henrico VA) today to test out my repaired Olympus 1.4 teleconverter. Not much was happening while I was there but I did manage to get a few shots.

Very happy with the performance of the repaired lens and beyond happy with the customer service @omsystem provided. They received it Friday, I got it back to me fixed on the following Thursday with email communications almost daily!

Wilson's Snipe - Lifer For Me

Thanks to @BarbaraHouston I was able to photograph another “lifer” yesterday, the Wilson’s Snipe while at Dutch Gap. There is no way I would have seen any of them without her help.  These cute shorebirds remained in the reeds and swamp grass for most of the time we were there but did come out to enjoy the sun for a short time and I was able to catch them when they appeared in the open.
