Beautiful catch!

Very cool how you caught the bird against the bright sunshine lighting up the flights and secondaries. I love to watch these birds fly, so effortless.

Excellent shot, Sally! The light through the wings is really dramatic. Around here we call these buzzards.

I like the way the light is filtering through the wings.

Great catch. I know only too well how hard it is to take a shot of a flying bird. You got it in a good pose.
