    Killer image David with a great topside view of the snail kite. Beautiful BG and wellframed. No nits for me.

    It's pretty easy to see why it's one of your favorites, David! Excellent top-side view, very sharp, and I really like the composition.

    Dave, Of the three Snail Kite captures I've seen from your recent trip, this is my fav too. What a sharp image. Very impressive. I see you decided on the 300 and 1.4 instead of your usual handheld 500. Was that in deference to the aquatic platform?
