[Leica] Birds

[Ted Grant]

Hi Jayanand,
Beautiful captures. :-) They're so crispy sharp they look like they could
pop off the screen and take a chunk out of your face! :-(
I'm always in awe when you birding lads capture them in full flight still as
sharp as a razor blade.
I can and could capture Olympic athletes like that in full stride at one
time! But birds???? NEVER!  :-) 
cheers,
Dr. ted C.M.  O.C.

Some birds of the Pantanal.

First up, the Great Black Hawk, both nature and immature. The immature one
was "induced" to dive at this dramatic angle by our boatmen throwing a fish:

Next up, the ever present and invariably noisy Southern Crested Caracara,
one of the largest members of the falcon family:
