Peregrine Falcon Canon 10D, 100-400mm. Handheld. ISO 400. 1/750, F 5.6

Hello Everyone!

I just returned from my 10 week contract working in Algonquin Park, and now my first chance to post since then!

Just before I left, I was lucky to spend the day at Niagara Falls watching the family of Peregrine Falcons that nest in the area. This is the Adult Male at the nest site, shortly after the sun came up.

Comments and Critiques appreciated!

Very nice! :wink: I love the colors and details. It looks a bit soft due to a big crop?
