Nice shot and especially like that this is in black and white.... The bird seems to be concentrating on its task of watching...

It is really watching........ for a victim. I've seen them diving down at squirrels, what a noise they make.
You did a good job Steve getting this one. Umm.. did he have legs ?

Such a sleek looking bird. I like the shine on beak and feathers.
