    One of my first 7D images; I thought I would share though the hidden tip of the beak lets it down a bit.
    I was unable to move left fast enough as he stayed for about 5 seconds lol
    We dont see so many of these now and I was lucky to walk into the hide and set up tripod just as it came in.

    so 7D 100-400 tc 1.4 1/500 ISO 400 Ev 0 f8

    promising......

    Lucky you! They usually only stay 3 seconds for me

    He is a gorgeous bird Richard. As you mentioned the beak is unfortunate but I am sure you were happy to see this guy. You will see him again and again and eventually you will get the money shot!

    I like it Richard, the included environment gives us a sense of the size of this beauty. Nice and sharp and colors look great.
