He was going to "do" it, but at this moment he was still in flight. So, technically, this is still a BIF photo :-)

Not my best BIF shots, but this bird was fast. I just wanted to share as it was a new one for me, and to get 2 shots in flight was icing on the cake. Also I thought the wings were particularly interesting.

Sorry. I just don't have access to many exotic birds. Gotta keep in shape until the day comes :-) 5D4 does a pretty good job. Not sure if I'll give up my 7D2. Need to do a lot of back to back testing.
