Excellent in-flight, you picked the right moment, and caught him "in the act" too.
Gosh, I don't know whether to be frustrated that I haven't yet managed any even half-good bird in-flight shot (not for lack of trying), or be heartened that apparently it is possible with a 70-200 mm lense (Sigma in my case though). I think I'll go with the latter ... ;-
Very well done!

Hi Chi, very nice shot. I love the feeling of movement and I really like the beak grasping the berry? I don't think they are cowardly, I think they have a good grasp on survival, they are very intelligent birds.

Great shot.

Hi Liu, I do not have the time to write a decent comment. I give to you the well deserved smiley. Great picture. A not easy one. Great visual impact. Well done.

Thank you for sharing pictures and notes and for the enjoyment which they give to me.

Have a wonderfull weekend!

Hello Chi,

I think this is a great shot and you captured this fast flying bird quite nicely. I do think parts of the bird (under the wings, the feet) are underexposed. I fixed you a nice workshop, but I can't upload it as you obviously don't allow workshops to be posted. :( The food in the beak of the bird is a great bonus! And you even managed to get a catchlight. Well done & TFS!

Regards,
Pieter

Hi Chi... fantastic shot! You truly captured this fellow in action stealing the prize. I like the solid black appearance on everywhere except the head; keeps the focus on the important area. Very nicely done! :-)

Birds as dark as these are difficult to capture right because you can't usually see much detail in the feathers. The light on this one is pretty good, though, showing a lot of detail on the head and the eye. The food in it's mouth is a bonus.
