牧草地でチョウゲンボウ

牧草地ではチョウゲンボウが獲物を探してスプリンクラーの上などに止まっています。体が小さく、動きも速いので撮影がなかなか難しい部類。最近、ニコンから出たD5は一点一点のフォーカスポイントがかなり小さいらしいので、小さな被写体でも抜けたりしないのでしょうか? 気になります…。^^;

When it spots prey it launches out in an instant. The Common Kestrel is fast right from the first beat.

Caught something in the grass. It ate on the ground, so I couldn't make out what it had caught.
