Thanks you guys.

Both photos were shot with a 7D and a 500/4 II. Both were ISO 100. The pose was at f/5.6 & 1/250 sec and the one with the bullhead was f/8 & 1/160 sec. I was not using a tripod, but resting the lens barrel on my shooting port.

I'm attaching one more shot; it's not tack sharp, but I thought it was kind of cool how he was tossing the minnow about as I've seen egrets do.
