CommentThis very young bird was in the process of being driven out of its parents territory. Only the female bird was involved in this. The male seemed content just to watch the process. The youngster wasn't at what I would call the competent flying stage. Still, other young birds in the area were getting the same treatment.
EquipmentD800E with Nikkor 300mm F2.8 with TC17Eii on Gitzo tripod and Induro gimball head.
