Remarkable shot Levina! Great focus and detail. S/he seems to be giving you a stern look as if you are in its landing zone.

Thanks very much, Jim. They live and breed in a barn on a farm and they are very much used to people. They always fly by at very close distances. The problem is focusing on them at those close distances as they are fast as bullets and have totally erratic flight patterns. This time I got it right. :)
