Gorgeous, Jim. This adult is sharp as a tack. Particularly like the tail and feet.

The detail is this image is ridiculous. I just love the view of the talons under the tail. Great stuff.

Jim:

Great capture with extreme detail and great exposure in an otherwise harsh light. Congratulations.

Congrats on a magnificant handheld. I can only wish I could do that. Noticed you are using the 20D now.

Mine is going back to Canon (shuts off for no reason and focusing does not seem to operate correctly).

Keep posting these great shots - making us all so jealous.
