The two shots I posted were wide open at 250mm. The EXIF showed 350mm, f5.6.

Obviously very good optics. So is the EXIF corrected to f5.6?
I'd like to see a shot with the 60-250 at 250mm which would be 350mm at
f5.6.

Yep, they were all shot wide open, which translates to f5.6.

(f/4 from the 60-250 at full aperture, 1.4x from the TC)

Paul, any idea what the f stops were for those?

The converter arrived today. It?s gray and wet outside and not a bird
to be heard, but I shot a few pics to see how well it resolves. All
shot wide open with the DA* 60-250/4 at 250mm and converter attached.
Here?s an ISO 12,800 indoor pic of Grace, who was home sick and hasn?t
washed her hair:

Here?s a shot of a silly sign that my neighbor gave me for watering
her plants. It?s at a more modest ISO 3200

Very pleased with its performance. Hope to get out to the nature
center for some birding next week.
