    Thanks. Yeah, it's amazing the height he gets launching in that deep snow too. You'd think he's lose power with his feet sinking in, and the drag of the snow as he launches.

    Thanks, Dan! Yeah, 700mm on a crop body. He was clear on the backside of a pond. I'm not good at estimating long distances, over a hundred yards certainly. I had a blast watching the coyotes, they're such good hunters.

    Marvelous sequence. clap.gif I just wish your subject had been more cooperative and had turned a bit more toward the camera.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
