Amazing capture. 6 from me. Best regards.

Dick...  Great timing and detail.  While beautiful, this shows these magnificent birds are rough and tough at the same time... Mike 

Thank you all! I'm headed back to the lake for the next three weeks to try my hand at more of the same.  I am pining for the 500mm f4 VRII...but, well you know:-)

Dick...  Just do it!  I'll bet FedEx will deliver to the lake... ;-).... Have a great trip... Mike

Really cool action shot. Best regards, Linh Dinh

Thank you, Linh!

Amazing clarity - well done (6)

Thank you, Tony!

Impressive. Looks like the bird will leave the frame. The tree at right  balances the composition. Congrats.

Jose,

Thank you!  This was a really lucky shot and a lot of fun!  Hope to be out in my kayak again soon.
