Today morning in ever so light light rain.
I like it much better than the harsh full sun.
Thanks for looking.

Thanks, Mario.
I still have the 1D Mark IV but I started thinking about selling it.
It is a very good camera but I think the 5D IV is slightly better and much lighter.

Great shot Karl. Love the beak with a mouthful of something. Sharp, crisp and nicely captured.

Karl, We get this bird in South Texas during migration. They really are stunning birds. Nice details and background.

Terrific pose against a nice simple BG, and the prey is a real bonus. Nicely done, Karl.
