Congratulations Graham Smith
Great Grey-Success

This was such an awesome moment! He caught this vole after hearing it underneath a foot of snow, from his perch more than 50 feet away!. That is some incredible hearing!

Shot with Nikon D90, AF-S 300mm + 1.4TC, f/5.6, 1/2000. I removed some small twigs that were extending from behind the bird.
The lighting was very poor, so I had to shoot at iso 800.

Thanks for looking!

Great shot. Except for that "White Stuff". That's why I moved for Florida! ; > )
