Giangiorgio Crisponi 498 Posted November 9, 2020 Birds of prey - Black kite in flight (Milvus migrans). I photographed this Black kite in flight in the Monfragou Park region - Extremadura Spain. This bird is free in nature. Nikon D500, Sigma sport 150-600mm, f / 7,1, 1/2500 sec, ISO 560. Thanks for your comments Link to comment
tai 3 Posted November 9, 2020 Excellent shot, Giangiorgio! Interesting predator pose showing perfect wing construction. I guess this is a moment of watching and searching for a victim. Masterfully done! Bravo! Sincerely, Tatiana Link to comment
Giangiorgio Crisponi 498 Posted November 9, 2020 Tatiana I am glad you liked and appreciated this photo. You are right, the hawk was intent on its morning hunt, ciao Giangiorgio Link to comment
michaellinder 16,613 Posted November 9, 2020 Giangiorgio, I was fortunate to watch a program dealing with animal flight. In this photo, the bird appears to be gaining altitude (wings above the torso and curved); its companion shows the bird in cruising mode (wings somewhat level). In this case, although both images are outstanding, this one shows the bird staring straight ahead. Its facial appearance is both intense and menacing. - - My best always, michael Link to comment
