Nice action captured here, Robert. You got pretty close with only a 300mm - even with TC. I never can manage to get close enough. Nicely done.

Great moment captured with the wing flap and open beak .. wish you had a bit more canvas at the tail.

Lovely capture of the action. Nice details on the KF, sweet light and background. Wish there was a bit more space
at the bottom so the tail was not so close to the edge of the frame.
