Yep, too bad the wing is cut and I also wish both talons were visible, but this photo is still quite entertaining! It sure put a smile to my face :-)

The clipped wing and talon are unfortunate, but there is still some great action in this photograph. Great angle and extremely sharp. What we the falcon trying to catch?

Jean-Phillipe, I would really prune the wings to focus in on the action. Just a pity that there is no obvious target for the intense gaze and outstretched talon.

Great action you captured and the timing was awesome. Agree with the previous comments but this is so unique and a big congratulations on this capture.
