These birds try and hover over the coots to try and nail some, i have seen only one successful kill that too a few years back.
In the latest incident seen last month this is the harrier female
5D MIII + 400 f2.8 L IS + 2x TC
f 6.3 , 1/8000 , ISO 1250
Attachment 124465
C & C welcome

Vishal, I like the design of the image with the bird set high and to the right of the frame, details of the underwing are great. Noticed that you shot with a 2X and f6.3. I wonder if you could get sharper images and details around the head and body at say f8 or even f11 since you had shutter speed to spare (1/8000).
I like the flight position and comp, and the warm bird against the cool bg. For my personal taste it might have looked better without the white border.
Vishal,
I think Loi made some great points. The comp is great, and the lowered legs are a bonus.
The image looks like it has a bit of IQ loss, just a little soft. I think a touch of contrast and sharpening would do the trick.

nice pose and light but the bird looks quite soft on my screen.
She's a beauty and I love the dangling legs. Exposure spot on. Soft as presented, and for me personally I find her a bit too much to the right, not by much but enough for me to note it.
I was shooting a bird on the ground and trying to get a shallow DOF on it when i saw this female in the sky and raised my lens and made the image, i think the IQ would have been far better at the f8 or f11Quote:
