    Oh wow…I’ve never heard of this type of falcon! This is great…raptors are so amazing to see and photograph. John, you should join the raptor group and the birds group!

  • Thank you Leslie.

    Very tight shot.
    Good clarity.
    Did you crop or use a telephoto lens?

    Hi Steven, thank you. This was using my 70-200 at 200mm. Slight crop too. I was pretty close, about 20 feet or so.
