Managed to get out in between the snow falls!
Unfortunately this chap was a bit of a distance away so had to add a 2x tc to my 500mm. More of a record shot than decent pic but now I know where he lives I'll be back!    
regards.

Excellent shots Stu, and with a x2 TC on the 500mm  Those shots are remarkable considering! |

Nice captures Stu.
I'm impressed that you were able to get such clear shots with your setup, especially as it's so cold.

Thanks for the comments. 
Had my tripod head screwed tight down and used the mirror lock up with a remote trigger.
Really shows the degredation to the image quality with that tc. Only gonna use it as a last resort! I've a 1.4x that works fine so will stick to that!
regards.

Considering that you're essentially shooting at 1000mm in the winter, these are fantastic images Stu. |

Lovely shots.
Some record shots - most would be delighted with them as keepers.
