Description

Eastern Phoebes are medium-sized flycatchers. This image, an ‘insurance’ shot from a long distance was taken as I was approaching an area with many types of perching birds. Several hawks flew in on the hunt and drove this Phoebe and all the other birds away. 1/800th second exposure; 700mm at f/5.6; ISO 100 in Aperture Priority, camera on tripod
