Close enough...

This morning when going on my walk, I decided to take the K 200/2.5 out. As I was walking up on this scene, there was a hawk perched on a signpost. I set the exposure using the green button technique way in advance, knowing that I would have to act fast if he took off. Now I was wishing for the 400mm instead of this 200. Just couldn't get close enough before he did take flight.

I can understand why mankind hasn't given up war. During a war you get to drive tanks through the sides of buildings and shoot foreigners - two things that are usually frowned on during peacetime.
