    Default Black shouldered Kite

    Dear All,
    A Black Shouldered kite from the Black Buck sanctuary, Taal Chaper, Rajasthan.

    Took this photograph when the hovering raptor took a break from its intense scan for a possible prey to share eye contact with me.

    EOS 7D + 300 f2.8 II + 1.4x III @ f8, ISO 400, 1/1600

    Look forward to comments

    Cheers
    Dipankar

    Good to see this raptor hovering and facing you. The tail feathers appear like a fan. Handheld?

    Indeed, Handheld but then the 300 f2.8 II is incredibly light, only felt a little heavier than my 300f4.

    Nice wing spread. Good eye contact. The backlit feathers of the tail look nice. Nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.
