Actually though, this guy was just landing. Caught him 1/2000 *just* as he touched his feet down. He doesn't look it though, and I like teasing IanD, so here he is.

You can take my 100-400 L away when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

Now I just have to ask the following...how nice is it taking a picture of a poor shitehawk that is frozen to the surface of a pond? Landing? I think not. Trying to take off and realizing he is frozen or krazy glued to the ice is more like it. The FoSS will be after you Scottes... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

All joking aside, really nice capture. Timing is everything and you nailed this one.

Thanks, but I really can't take credit for the timing. This one was in a burst of 4 - it just so happened that this one turn out interesting.


PS: FoSS?
