Hi David.
Very nice.

Hi Kirk.
Stunning, well done.
I think hovering is just another mode of flight. ;D

Cheers, Graham.

This is the point of takeoff with worm in the beak. I hope this counts. Hand-held 7D2, 100-400II @400, 1/500, f7.1, ISO 500.

Yes, I got GAS and bought the new 100-400 and love it. And, btw, AFMA is 0 on the 7D2 and it focuses just fine.

That's a great shot! So who won? The Osprey I assume, I doubt the heron would be able to keep hold of the fish once its in the Osprey's talons.
