con Nikon TC-20E III, 1/2000 f/5.6, ISO 250, hand held.

Questa ghiandaia petto lilla era posata ad una decina di metri e, vista la distanza, ho montato il moltiplicatore 2x; era una mattinata con il cielo coperto, quasi slavato. Dopo pochi istanti si è lanciata in picchiata e ha catturato questa scolopendra, posandosi su un ramo più vicino e impiegando un paio di minuti per averne la meglio e ingoiarla. Purtroppo a questo punto con il moltiplicatore ero troppo lungo ma per non rischiare di perdermi la scena ho scattato senza pensarci troppo

The previous version was a bit underexposed, so it seems much better, then the flat light did not favor you, but on that you can not do anything about it.
For me it's a beautiful photo, a savannah classic taken with prey that makes it more interesting.
If they see several of them affixed to trees on the side of the road to collect the "victims" of the passage of cars, this makes them particularly "confident", although almost always the pdr is not the best.
