7D2; Canon EF-400mm F/5.6L; Tv-1/2000; f/6.3; ISO 500; Handheld in available light:

Nice capture, bobby. I always waiting to take pictures like your shot but not yet, I hope someday.

[Bobby Kintanar]

Thank you Tateo - next time, we should position ourselves properly for better shots! :-)

You may be a grandpa now Ka Bobby but the reflexes are certainly undiminished.... great action wonderfully captured!

Thank you so mch Ka Mastah. I hope someday I can catch this bird in good light and in better angles. :-)
