Thanks, guys It was a great opportunity, great fun, and delivered amazing pictures. I'll try to get it done once more, but it will take months to prepare. Probably only next year. The nesting will stop soon. Then the birds will fly out to everywhere, and return only in the spring.

I tried to search it in the web, but couldn't find anything. You will find a 'macro'version, but that's not a 'one touch'. Only found an expired auction of a 70-140mm 'sister' with very similar looks of this 'one touch' zoom lens. Sharpness was helped a bit with Topaz AI, but the original (shot at F11 I think) wasnt bad'straight out of camera.
