    Default Red Kite - Milvus milvus

    The first shot is the one I am posting because it's fairly clear, the second shows you what I could have posted if I could have got focus and shake sorted I was so annoyed that I managed to get it fairly close and with the sun shining in it (not from behind as usual).. but I still messed it up :-(

    Your first shot is great, and shows its steering gear in action really well too!

    The second one is still good as it shows it clearly with its prey - or maybe clear enough for the more squeamish amongst us!

    You are not alone Louise, always happens to me as well.

    Ran the second one through focus magic, helps a little.
