Nick. Great question! I live on a lake in Spokane Washington. Its 20 miles long, and usually I shoot in-flight shots. I haven't had any open skys or light lately so I am stuck in my blind down on the lake in front of my house. The lake is at a 12 ft. draw down at this time and the waterfowl feed up the shoreline on the dead millfoil and mud ect. All my shots are taken in the wild. I do feed the quail here all winter so they wer eating with that shot I took. I am waiting for the arrival of the wood ducks. Should be here this week or next. Usually I have at least 25 prs. living around my place. In two years I have never got a good inflight pic of a woody. I should be able to with this new lense. Hope this helps. I leave my blind in the same location all year long, so the birds get used to it.
