 This guy flew past our balcony on the 21st floor the first day of vacation.
I didn't have my camera ready and was so miffed the I missed a perfect oppertunity. Well, the next day he came back and landed right on the railing of our balcony and this time I was ready!
He stayed there while I crept ever closer, shooting the whole time.
I wish both eyes were in focus but I was nervous and not exactly thinking straight.

Very nice, once again, but I wouldve liked the focus on the eyes a little more.
