Kite and Buzzard
Canon 20D, Sigma 500/4.5, 1/1000 f4.5, ISO 200

Sorry chaps - another Gigrin Kite :frown: This Buzzard had one of the last remaining pieces of meat and the Kites wanted it. Sadly the light didn't really allow enough SS or DOF (and I wasn't quick enough to hike the ISO). This is about a 70% crop and the full size isn't anything like critically sharp, but I thought it was passable at this size.

A really nice piece of interaction you've caught there Gary.
