Thanks for rating and commenting Fonzy!!

The 50-200mm is a good lens too(even though it can't compete with the 300mm:-)))

Cheers,
Frank

Thanks a bunch Arun:-))

I guess we can credit the OLY gear for this one, at least my reflexes didn't have anything to do with it:-)) It came up on the beach next to me, watching curiously while I sat down 15 meters from it giving me plenty of time to get the perfect exposure...
