(Male American Kestrel ) Bosque de Apache, New Mexico
This is a continuation of my series of images from my two weeks at Bosque. My intent is to make the images flow as though they all occurred during a single day. Of course, they occurred during the two weeks I was there. This is the thirty ninth post of the series. The time is now 13:23 pm. The neat thing about being around Greg Downing when I'm in New Mexico is that he never seems to get back to the Refuge after lunch as early as I do. As usual, this Kestrel always seemed to be hanging around the entrance to the refuge as long as Greg wasn't around. Unfortunately, he didn't like cars approaching her too closely so I learned that some shots from a distance were better than no shots at all. Also, he decided to perch a little too close to the post to not include it in the image. I'm pretty sure this was taken with the 3X on the 600. Since the camera doesn't recognize the converter, the exif information doesn't confirm this. But based on the shutter speed, aperture and ISO, I'm left to believe I was using it for this shot. Window mounted Nikon D2H, 600mm AFS, Kenko Pro 3X, ISO 400, Aperture Priority, 1/500 @ F16. Cropped 20% of the height of a landscape and made 5:4 as a portrait. Tony
