Show your Bird Portraits

Thank you so much for your kind words.

The setting are:

1/250
f/4
ISO 200

1DX II + Canon 500 f/4L IS II


I took this shot while kayaking.

This! The best shots I got yesterday was the ones taken at "ground level" so to speak. It's amazing what perspective can do. I feel like I'm along with the Goose there in the water.

I tell folk we only see Red-tailedUnknown hawk_1141.JPG hawks here and only in the sky so I have no experience with ID. Trying to follow some swallows I saw this and snapped it but at 800mm and 1/1000 and great distance it's very poor - still if anyone can help with ID I'd appreciate it.

I believe that is a Northern Goshawk.
