We saw this bird going back and forth from a tree top into a swarm of bugs.  Had a lot of opportunity to get something I liked.

Gear was a Canon 7D II and the 100-400II.  Settings were:  manual exposure- F 5.6, 1/8000 second, ISO 2000.

Don't be so modest, Steve! - lots of opportunity, but you still had to get it just right - and with this fantastic image, you certainly did. Brilliant capture - and tack sharp too. Superb!
