I do like this Guy - a lot :toast:

My favourite bird I've yet to photograph properly, I like the action, the comp, the works - GOOD STUFF :wavey:

Excellent... like this a lot... might have been even better a tad earlier so that the tail is clear of the rocks, but of course no idea if that was at all possible, particularly with the slower frame rate of the 5D...

A pleasure to view + the processing is superb

Hi Guy,

I agree with Phil about the tail, but a great shot and well taken!.
