Description
More often than not. Trying to catch the moment when a bird catches its prey is a challenge. That initial release of the shutter be it one frame, or a burst, really determines whether you catch it or not. I was fortunate with this Egret, in that it made multiple attempts close by which in this case, I managed a couple of frames.
