Swoop

By KingArthur
Shot captured last month while out birding by the water's edge.

I got hold of this Slender-billed Gull as it hovered over the surface, and zoomed in just as it swooped in for a plunge ..... a short quick burst did the rest. Quite pleased with the end frame.

Viewing large looks better.

Action Gear -
Camera: Nikon D7500
Lens: Nikkor 200-500mm at 500mm

Have a great day,
Joe Smile
