New Glass (Dendrocopos major)

Yes I know it's my woodpecker again but I have posted this for information. It is the first photo with my new lens, Sigma 150 600 with the canon 1dx. It was late evening, the sun was setting but very bright, a lot of glare coming back off white surfaces.
Although I have the Sigma 120 300 f2.8, I wanted to try this lens camera combination for that extra reach without converters. So far so good will put it through it's paces over the next week.
