The snail kite has been giving us post of opportunity the past few days and here is one I got today just as he was leaving the cyprus.
Nikon D3, Nikon 600mm F4, ISO 400, 1/1250, F7.1, manual exposure.

Great pose, light and details. I might try to lighten the shadow on the bird's right wing a bit. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome shot, great wing position and nice details, those talons are intimidating.
Very nice sharpness and an interesting pose with the feet hanging down. I agree with Axel about trying to lighten the shadow.
Very nice JudyLynn. Great to shoot with you this morning.

I love his red eye. Another impressive flight image, JulyLynn.
Nicely composed.
What a pose! Great timing on this Judy. The mentioned shadow looks rather bold. He's got a pretty menacing look here...wouldn't want to be a snail close to him!
Not much to add Judy. A very solid photo of an intimidating bird! Agree about the shadow.
