Hawk Cuckoo - Breakfast Time

[Anand Madabhushi]

This morning had a whale of a time with this bird. Minimal cropping for rule of thirds.
AV mode; 1/250; f5.6; ISO 200; 100-400@400

Patraji predicted these Hawk Cuckoos would give me a good feeding shot.

Lovely eye contact. Nice that you got it with a catch. Nicely composed. Seems there is some noise in the background, was any sharpening done? Thanks for sharing.
