First time I have been able to shoot one of these on my property. We see a lot of them along the road to town though.
I only got time for a couple of shots before it took off, not enough time to dial in the exposure properly, the grass behind was in full sun, but the bird and fencepost was in the shade, I was still at least a stop or two underexposed, I recovered the shadows as much as I could but was losing too much detail, this is as good as I could get out of the best shot I took.
Nikon D7100, Tamron 150-600, @600mm, f6.3, 1/800, iso1600, handheld. This is cropped about 50-60%.
