    One of my favorite birds. I love to watch them flying in flocks and foraging in the water.

    7D, EF400mm f/5.6L
    Manual mode, f/5.6@1/4000 ISO 400 WB 5100K
    AI Servo autofocus, hand-held no flash

    excellent details and pose, great that you got the red eye too. wish the head was more parallel to the back of camera.

    Thanks Arash! I agree that a slight head turn my way would have been killer...

    Very nice, Kerry. Other the HA, exposure and the details are excellent.

    Kerry, Sharp, well exposed and beautiful flight pose. I too wish for a slight head turn but I'd still like to have this one.

    Beautiful flight shot, especially catching the eye and the color of the wings. Just a little head turn or having him fly a bit toward you would have put this over the top.
