BNSs Attacking Killdeer - Click image to view larger!

Thanks for viewing/comments! ... the 2nd hour with the borrowed 1D-X and it's

a fast camera that lock/track well. Low chance for this with my 1D Mark III

Wow! Spectacular, well done, very sharp image congratulations, I love the subject and composition!!!!

Warm regards,

Luda

Thanks luisa!

Nice catch!  Wonder why they were after the Killdeer?  Nice camera!

Thanks Dom! From what I understand it's the sound they make became their name. I am heading to Alaska for some 'hopeful' eagle shots, wish me luck! :-)

Amazing sharpness, dramatic action, perfect timing.

However the few visible parts of the second attacker are rather distracting.

Hope this is helpful. Karl

Another interesting shot, Tm.  I hope the killdeer got away.  Have fun in Alaska.  J

Thanks Karl!

Thanks Janine! Had a great time in Alaska from the Artic Circle to Homer with 80 degrees weather and clear sky for the whole week. Came home to foggy SoCal though :-)
