This is the one and only time I have ever been able to get so close to a TV up here (I've had the privilege in Florida before). They are so skittish, usually. After taking a few full-body images, one which I posted a few weeks ago, I began a super slow approach. It paid off with some close-ups such as this. One my way back the plan was to back away just as slow....first step back, the vulture took off and away!
Canon 7DII + 500mm f/4 II + 1.4TC III, manual exposure, evaluative metering, 1/800s., f/8, ISO 800, natural light, handheld, small crop for comp (about 80% FF), deepened the blacks and added more contrast and saturation (to taste and to match what I think I saw) than usual to liven up the otherwise dull raw file.
