Not often can one get up too within about 50 meters of these grand birds,I noticed this fellow swooping down on galah's on dusk,I thought it worth while having a shot at getting some images,was pleased to get as close as I could,and get some photos,really do not often see these fine raptors.
The lens and camera used was a Canon 50D and a Canon 400 mm L series prime lens.
The settings for first 1/800 F 8 ISO 500,in flight 1/640 F8 ISO 500.
Apparently,a near by neighbour often sees it chasing double bar finches,I have not often seen it,maybe a couple of times in Winter,by always early in morning or late evening,it swoops low and fast,and looks like the F18 fighter jet of the bird world.
