Excellent weather today but hardly any birds flying my favorite routes :(
I guess its just the way it goes sometimes. Here is a female Bufflehead from a few weeks
back.
Repost is a definite improvement. Congratulations on another exciting shot. You seem to consistently shoot your flying waterfowl at ISO 800, and I don't see any problems with noise.
Much improved after the added sharpening! Great wing position and eye contact. The white patch on the head is nicely exposed. Love the smooth water BG.
Agree with the repost being much better. Wonder if it could take another round of sharpening though... And that's just comparing it to your other images... The single drop just past the downward stroke of the wing is cute. JR
