He was farther than I wanted but you can't always get them where you want them!

a nice shot

Nice perch and pose.

Very cool sharp shot I was recently shooting one myself but out 100 I took none of them turned out to be sharp, perhaps camera shake did me in. What lens did you use?

nicely captured

Unique and very nice.

You know most of the time I try and use a tripod and watch my shutter speed etc, but on this shot I was walking down a road. I hand held the shot using the Canon 100-400L extended all the way using iso 200. I just got lucky.

Thank you. I have seen some very nice photos you have taken.

I always seem to scare them away, nice shot!

Thanks. We have had a lot of water this spring so we have so many that a few are fairly brave. Most of them want to fly away but a few do stay. This one was in the process of landing and he did not stay long I got in three shots before he left.
