Shot at a focal length of 270 mm...
We were lucky to get this just next to the safari jeep and I got this full frame image. Lighting was a bit low and he was perched a bit higher than the jeep. He had his meal at leisure right in front of us and then started examining us. He has this curious look on his face when my camera clicked...
Lovely details. Sharp. Liked the eye contact and the perch. Its good you got it in clear. Could you get any photographgs with the kill? Keep posting.
Hi Priya,
This is nice. It is giving a curious look. Great that you got it close to vehicle. If you could have moved a bit left and lower, then you could have avoided the blue sky just behind the head. Not sure whether you could have moved without spooking the bird. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,

Nice look on the face. I like that the body is well exposed even in the shade. Nicely done.
Agree with the others... Great shot. That stare is simply awesome.
Wow! Priya this is a great close up shot, liked the eye contact, TFS
