    Congratulations David!

    Caught this Say's Phoebe returning to its perch after a successful hunt. My friend and I got lucky when we saw it coming back to the perch. We both hit our shutter buttons as the bird came in but the Phoebe got startled from the noise and did a quick hover around the perch. Auto focus was locked on to the tip of the perch and luckily the bird hovered right at the perches focal distance. We got quite a few cool frames in that two second hover. Hope you like this one.

    Thanks as always for looking and for your input. I appreciate it.

    David
