First Try of Nikon 70-300mm VR

After 2 failed delivery attempts from UPS, I finally got my 70-300mm. I immediately drove to the coast to give it a try. The seals were very cautious and swam too far away for good pictures, so I could only make do with those pelicans. They were all busy cleaning themselves.

I tried panning and found it hard. The low light auto focus didn't work too well on the 300mm side. However, VR worked like a charm. Overall, the lens is not great but still very useful. Lesson learned: wildlife photography is harder than I expected.
