- My first one. I'd seen him the day before and he flew off before I could get set up. I was so much in a hurry to capture him this time I didn't bother to check settings. If I had my "druthers" I wouldn't have shot him on a feeder pole either, but you take what you get sometimes.

Thanks. Like I said in my post I'd never seen one before except in a book.

They are strikingly beautiful aren't they Tony, and you captured him very nicely.
I just hope the one I saw for a couple of days has some friends following him shortly. You're capture gives me hope that that may be the case. Nicely done!
