Aerodynamic little fellow.

looking at the shot, from beak backwards, seems like an aerodynamic little fellow. guess thats why he can zoom around so well
Shot with an old D2H, 300 f4 and 1.4x handheld.

Dunno know how you even get these guys in you viewfinder!

They must be soaring or something. Every time I tried to get one in my sights at the lake, they were just darting all over the place, and it was impossible!! I'm no rook when it comes to tracking birds in flight, but the ones in my areas are bloody impossible! :twisted: Good catch!

PS, check your regular mail acct re Pudge.
