Hi Moose,
Yes, I'm aware of your gear preferences, and, there is no debate here,
they work. But you have another big advantage, in your outstanding
vision. I can look at images I took several years ago and see that my
eyesight was better at that time. My ophthalmologist works hard at it,
but he can't defeat Father Time! :-(

Nice work, especially the last one.
Thanks!
The Grosbeaks that pass through our parts are the Rose-Breasted, much
more colorful,
Male Black Headed Grosbeaks in breeding colors are quite striking,
more so, to me than the Rose-Breasted. But harder for a lazy birder
like me to catch.
but I've never caught the detail that you have in your images.
I imagine you are cropping more than I? You are using 90 and 135 mm
lenses, on a 1.5 crop factor camera, so about 200 mm, FF eq., with no IS.
I'm using an 800 mm eq. lens, with excellent IS. Make the image on the
sensor 4x larger and minimize camera motion blur, and ya gets more
clear detail.
Whether the PLeica @ 400 mm is sharper than your old lenses, I don't
know.
