Good shot. It looks like the bird we call a goldfinch up here. Decent

Very nice, even with the donut shaped bokeh. Which Sigma did you get
This is one of my first shots with the Sigma 600mm mirror lens I bought from

Thanks. I've also confirmed that it is a Silver eye.
The lens is just a Sigma 600mm f8 mirror telephoto. It doesn't really have

east Australia.
