Thanks guys...
@ Richard, I am not 100% sure either but I feel it's a grasshopper..

Amazing pose with lovely setting and BG!
Prey item is a real bonus here.
Hi Kiran,
I love the action in this image. The fully extend talons and the prey makes this image for me. The only thing I would have like to have seen is the tail not blocked by the foreground. I do think that the tail being blocked is a minor issue and the incredible action more than makes up for it. A very nice image that I enjoyed very much. Thanks for sharing.

Just awesome pose and behavior capture, Kiran. Tells a story. Nice composition, and good job getting both predator and prey in focus. Great looking BG.![]()
Love it! Great action.
Great timing and action. Truly wonderful capture.
I love the how focused the bird is on it's prey! A few more practice runs and the bugs won't stand a chance. Do wish we could see the tail feathers in their entirety, but still a really nice frame!
Upcoming Workshops: Bosque del Apache 2019, Ecuador 2020 (details coming soon)

Incredible pose, loverly BKGR, amazing action. Sharpest focus seems to be on the talons with the feathers not as razor sharp to my eye as is usual in your spectacular images (unless my glasses are dirty....) Love also the soft light.
