I’ve started going through my holiday pictures, and I thought I’d start with this set. One of the daily events at the zoo is a display of falconry, starring a quite magnificent Harris’s Hawk. At the end of the show, the hawk flew off into the trees, but apparently this is quite normal, and it generally returns at some point.
It wasn’t until I saw the images on my larger screen that I realised that I’d managed to get some rather good shots. It seems the improved autofocus on the 5D Mark III is working as advertised.
