Caught this fellow while walking dog one morning. The closer I got the more nervous he became until liftoff and flight. One handed shooting in auto as the other hand was holding the dog that wanted to chase a b1rd. was able to get a few clicks before he was out of range...TFL Cliff

Thanks for looking guys, We do the best we can in all circumstances, some more adverse than others and then sometimes we just delete the results and go looking for the nest photo-op. Happy shooting to all...........Cliff
