Cattle Egret Shot While Hanging Out the Car Window

Not the Preferred Method

 

 

 

This photo was taken back on July 15, 2013 at about 5:30PM.

Riding along with RyukyuRusty, I spotted the bird in a field below the Kin Bridge.



Normally, I'd make a shot like this, using a tripod and, the big 500mm lens.

 

This photo was taken with a Pentax KD10 and the 18-250 lens at 250mm.

All I did was lean out the window and spot focus on the bird's eye.

Three quick shots were made using burst mode.

Then, I told Rusty, "Close the window.  It's hot out there"  !
