Sparrowhawk Feathers - a photo on Flickriver

            
Accipiter nisus. Wild

Some feather movement. While the bird was still for long moments i was trying to keep ISO as low as possible and relying on the IBIS. As the bird became more active i got caught out, and with a failing battery.

This one has almost red eyes. A sign of age. 

Handheld with the 300/f4 in terrible light.
