shot with 7D + 100-400mm, handheld, low light made an added difficulty.

Rare sighting. Found in eastern Himalaya. Nice capture. Agree with Roopak Bhai about ID. Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

*I prefer to use 'Himalaya', not 'The Himalayas'.

Nice to see this species. What was the shutter speed, ISO and aperture?

Politicians prefer to change names of cities - Kolkata from Calcutta, Mumbai from Bombay. However, the people who take decisions don't realise that "Himalayas" doesn't have any meaning. The word Himalaya is made of two root word "Hima" "Aalaya". Intrinsic to our religion and culture, still we go with the wrong name "Himalayas".
