Today I went out to photograph geese. In the Netherlands there are a lot of migrating geeese, but they are hard to get real good pictures off. They tend to fly away when I show up...
I was almost ready to leave when I saw a Buzzard (buteo buteo) catch something. When I came closer i saw that the prey was a coot and fortunatly enough the buzzard was hungry so it stayed on the moorhen for quit a while. Enough time to make a nice serie. This is one of the pictures i could create.
5D, 500 f/4 L + 1.4 tc, iso 800 from beanbag on the ground (I was laying beside my car)
