Outstanding image Chris, can't wait for these guy's at Rietvlei to start sprouting their breeding plumage, don't need to go into the details as you've been doing this for quite a while, was just at Herdus & we had a look at the 2002 (then) Agfa Wildlife Awards Calendar with your "The Queen" image of the lioness, outstanding as well I might say!

Chris, extremely impressive shot - another demonstration to the rest of us on how to pan with your subject - is this handheld - if it is then its superb especially with a 500mm lens. Exposure, sharpness and background make this shot a winner! Well done.
Cheers - Mark

Raptor-ous applause as he fixes the bird of prey in the frame - POW - the shutter is released - nothing beats this but sex!
