Predictive focus could not predict the hawk was going to get caught in a gust of wind and be blown over backwards.

Harry,

This is an amazing image..I've seen many bird images and never seen this before, surprised you haven't had any comments.

Great capture..

Stalk those GBH's very slowly and as quietly as possible as they tend to be very skittish. I live in Mn. and they are very shy..in Fla where my dad lives they tend to be more human tolerant. (in answer to your thread on dpreview). Check out Mark Ehlers and Terry Alexander's work. They both use Canon equipment, with Terry using Oly E-1 also. His screen name is "terdonal".
