Today I had an opportunity to use a D2X and a 400. 2.8VR  I was shooting the same eagle and this guy let me put my card in his  cam. He ruined my life. I want a  longer lens for sure now. Mine is taken at a sightly  different POV, but you can see the dif. Mind you my setting were much different. Have a compare. Sold me for sure. Exif data is on them
