C. Golden Eye in flight

[Bob Malbon]

Here is one from this AM on the Scarborough Marsh (Maine) - Thinking hunting was over for a few week and the birds would have settled a bit: Wrong! I hate split waterfoul seasons - open till the end of Jan. The good part is that my stalking skills are paying off. Here is one captured at 1/1600 at f5.6, ME, AIservo, center AF 500mm on BushHawk. C/C always welcomed. - Bob Malbon

I like the compostion with the inclusion of the reflection and I love the near-wing down position. Exposure looks good, sharpness marginal. Sharpening the pupil usually helps with images like this.
