Walk along the canal at North Kilworth - SWMBO took these (I think she has a better eye than me!). The second pic would make a good jigsaw!

100-400 will be great for sport/ wildlife.
You may already have a tripod, obviously great to keep the camera perfectly still, but for wildlife and sport I find a monopod fantastic.
It will take the weight of the lens, but give you more freedom.

Thanks really sound advice...did have both ,but Just dug out my tripod Giottos ( head unit gone bad,, rubbers all gone sticky) but I’ll replace the head on the manfrotto monopod with ball type

Mrs Loz wears a harness that allows the camera and lens to clip on and swing down to one side, as its too heaver around the neck whilst walking..

Used to have a big sigma , that was heavy but never got round to getting a harness..can you pass on the details of the harness that Mrs Loz uses

 

[A Bridge Too Far]

I use this when hiking as it keep both hands free to cling onto rocks, walking poles etc. Same mount as the Manfrotto ball joint so fits onto my Tri / Monopod.

I take it your talking canon? check if its the mk 1 or mk 2 the mk 2 is far far better but more expensive. used to use it on a 7d and was a great lens and its even better on a full frame.
