Australian Grebe

1D Mark II, Canon 300 2.8, x2, HH, 1/1000, f-7.1, iso 400, early morning sun

OOPS I think I am a bit too early with this post - sorry... :oops:


I think the prey is a Dragonefly larva.

Ofer, another killer image from you. This is just fantastic.

Ofer, you are 12 hours early on your post and over on the pixel limit. Please wait 48 hours to post an image and please keep the size to 650 pixels on the longest side. Thanks.

Ofer,

This is a very nice shot of a great bird. In addition to the prey, I like the beautiful green water and the reflection.

A gorgeous shot. The only suggestion would be to put him a little to the right in the frame.

A very fine image in everyway, Ofer!
May just place the suject slight off center to the right but that is minor ... :roll:

Everything about it is excellent. I would move the bird a little to the right to get it out of dead center
