Some of you may recall I managed to get a shot of a wild Peregrine last year.

I was looking at past shots when I came across it and thought I could improve on it (original was quite noisy). I don't think I can get any more mileage out of it.

Thought I'd post it on here anyway:

Yes - really like the way she(?) is clocking you from the corner of her eye. Great catch. Which lens did you use???

It's ok. I just wish I had the Tamron 70-300 at F8 rather than F20; hopefully it would have ended with a better result. But ultimately it's not a god awful shot; the position the falcon is in and the apparent eye contact make the shot I think.

Sorry Tim - I didn't read your response before posting, but I've inadvertently answered your question anyway!
