My new Tamron 150-600 lens arrived and I walked around the neighborhood looking for wildlife and tried not to look like a peeping Tom.

I have a new appreciation for wildlife photographers trying to handhold a large lens

A little "Peeping Tom" story.....

I have been a falconer for over 20 years. Birds DO %^&* off and you have to go looking.. even when they have trackers on them.. its hard at times. They will roost up at night... and be hungrier and more amenable to coming back to the fist in the morning... so... if you have found your bird at dusk.. you either camp out... or go back before first light.

You then scout the surroundings with your binoculars (see where this is going?? !!) to check the bird is still there. You can bet you started off rurally and the bird is now on the edge of a village... maybe in a garden tree.. the back garden.. where the bedrooms overlook.......

Yep.. trying explaining to the Officer (this was England.. so thankfully no guns) that you are TRYING TO GET YOU $%^&*() BIRD BACK.... not look in the bedroom windows.. nor are you casing the place !!!!!!!!!!!!

(Sorry.. I tried to make it short ! Your comment just brought back hysterical memories :)):)):)) )
