Here si the last of the three frames I have from this female Cardinal coming into land. This was the first frame as I managed to get her in flight before extending her wings.
1DX, 500mm f/4, 1/5000 at f/8, ISO 1600

Wow, a really nice image Kurt! Perfect composition and the feathers give a real sense of the dynamics of flight. The color of the bird is perfectly complimented by the OOF background color. This is a winner; well done.

Really cool approach shot Kurt. I had to go back and view the others and they are all top notch images. I like the look of concentration on her face as she comes in for the landing. Nice set!

I love all the buffeting of the wings that's so evident in this image, Kurt. Nice positioning in the frame and sweet light.

What a shot Kurt! Amazing that you were able to get this level of the sharpness, and I love the background.
