Greater Kestrel

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi folks ... this image was taken in Namibia in Etosha NP back in 2019 .
Subject was just sitting right next to the track .... I slowly approached and took a couple of shots before he took off , as they mostly do .
I do always miss the the take off ..... LOL

Canon EOS 1Dx II
EF 200 - 400 IS L at 560 mm
HH

F 8 ; Iso 500 ; 1/2500 sec

Processed with DPP 4 and PSCC 2021 ; cropped from landscape to portrait ... way more than I would normally do , roughly 45 % left from original

Thanks for looking and commenting to my previous postings

Cheers Andreas
