What a difference a day makes. Different location and what a result. This is taken with the X2 extender on the lens plus manual focus so it is not as sharp as I would wish but this is what was captured.
This is a shot just before I packed up for the day, but when I arrived I had just set up and bang there he was. Happy to pose whilst I messed around with the lens and overall it was with me for about 20mins.
