Local swooper
Contest Number: 85 Contest Theme: Birds Lens: Sun Tele-Auto 135mm Camera: Pentax K-5 Shutter Speed: 1/750s Aperture: F2.8

It's the start of spring here so our local birds are a tad protective. I went outside to my front-yard to get this pic of a Wattle bird swooping my cat.

With a manual lens this was the best I could I could muster but thought I would submit a photo anyway for a bit of fun as I'm a real amatuer, I did like the action and how the bird has turned his head upside down to check out his landing in the next tree. They're cool birds but not at all friendly this time of the year

Thanks, please let me know if you have any tips on getting sharper photos with manual lenses and moving objects.
