Well, not exactly one of my usual birds but a fine subject regardlerss.
Canon 7D with my old trusty 100-400L lens handheld @ 1/500, f5.6, ISO 800, +2 exposure compensation.
This was a Hail Mary low light level shot with the sun already set behind trees and behind a cloud cover - you take 'em as you get 'em!
Cropped in slightly to fit a 12 x 9 framming format. Noise reduction applied.
My good photo companions, Dom and Éric, and I had completed the day's shoot and were walking towards our vehicles when this opportunity presented itself.
Cheers,
Mike
