Superb. I love that you just barely got a good look at the cardinal's eye. Nicely framed and sharp with a beautiful background. Was this at a set-up?

[Karl Egressy]

Excellent interaction image.

[Glenn Conlan]

Love the action and the two dramatic colored birds

Hi Roy,

You have captured some great action and beauty here. I particularly love the wing spread and tail fan of the mockingbird, and the fact that both bills are open.

This is really cool. Very strong interaction and energies crashing. I love the confidence of the mockingbird. Really nice one. TFS.

[Roy Priest]

Thanks everyone for the kind words. Artie, this was a set up at Laguna Seca.

[Marina Scarr]

Great interaction/behavior you captured here! Love the outstretched wings of the top bird, but especially its stance.
