Camera Critters #4 - Buzzard
I grabbed this shot one day on our camping trip. The buzzard was a regular visitor to the field and had just delighted me with a close fly over. He hovered over my head for ages and I allowed myself the pleasure of just watching before I decided it was worth a mad dash for my camera and a quick lens change. My big lens takes better shots from the tripod as the small movements of my hand and breathing make for blurred images but I was pleased to be able to get this anyway.

Is that Asperatus I see overhead?
ReplyDeleteLovely capture
Beautiful capture of the buzzard, and the clouds are stunning.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for your lovely comments.
ReplyDeleteBowledover - They do look like the beginnings of asperatus however this was one small area of cloud in what was otherwise a pretty clear sky. Maybe they were destined to reach their full potential elsewhere!
