Nature Mid-air Meet n' Greet

Mid-air Meet n' Greet · **17 Likes**

Taken at 1/1600s. Of course, I had the wrong lens. What else is new.

There were three baldies in the same tree and two of them obviously were having social problems and decided to settle their differences in mid-air.

Wrong lens or not, still a nice capture as I can feel the 'oh you think this is YOUR tree' tension.

Thank you. They were sure fun to watch and the first time I have ever witnessed this behavior.

Super catch, from the framing it looks like the lens worked out pretty well!!

You were fast on the draw to grab this terrific shot, Susan. I love how the antagonists are glaring at each other. First-class photography, for sure!

Fantastic capture Susan! Getting them completely into the frame and good focus is no easy feat.

Thanks to you both. I am still thrilled at being able to come away with a couple of shots. It was exciting to say the least.

This pic must come close to the proverbial "once-in-a-lifetime" category! Wonderful capture!
