Taken at Gigrin (of ccourse). Bit different from the norm I thought
Racked out and low down to get a different back drop.
Very large crop. About a fifth of the frame

Gigrin neaver fails to give people the opportunity to deliver. Nice shot and I like the dynamism in the bird and the fact that it has definately eyed what it wants.

Hi John,

Great shot and as Tom says it has eyed what it wants and "locked on".

Nice.... particularly as it is a huge crop, can see some noise creeping in though at this size....
