Thanks to Tom C, Fernando, Paul, Bruce, Wm Robb & Dave B for looking &
commenting
Tom C, ( "The bird itself seems rather soft") & Paul ("How does the full
sized image look at 100%") -
@ 100 % on my LCD I would term it commercially acceptable, not the sharpest
I've gotten from this lens.
Fernando, ("The only thing that distracts me a little are the out of focus
branches") -
since my yard is heavily treed, I am fortunate to get as unobstructed a view
as I've got.
Bruce, ("I am wondering a bit about the bokeh - perhaps that converter does
affect it somewhat") -
I'm not sure myself, as I told Paul, I haven't shot with the 2XL convertor
very much & have no real prior experience with it. Hopefully that's
something I can find out as this little projects continue.
Wm Robb, ("Nasty bokeh") -
Different bokeh, I'm not sure I'd call it nasty - YMMV. As I said above,
I'm in a heavily treed area and some of the background business is due to
the myriad of tree branches all over the place.

Should be an interesting spring around here.
Came home one day & found a couple of Red Bellied Woodpeckers working on a
dead tree in my backyard. They eventually finished their new home & moved
in.
The posted image @

was captured from my bedroom balcony.

Tripod.
800 ISO, f8.0 @1/1000 sec.
Comments of any kind appreciated.
