+1 Super shot....love the perch, the look back pose and fabulous detail.....top notch!!!
We're out in Columbus, OH this weekend and I was thinking since it's a city visit, no need to bring the 400 5.6. I was very wrong. Could have used it at the lake NE of town today. This GBH had some luck finding lunch, but I had to settle for my 70-200L IS and my 1.4x TC III. And some substantial cropping.
