CommentBeing above the birds as they soar on the thermals over Flying Fish Cove has its advantages as you get a different view of the birds. This Lesser Frigatebird has its landing gear out ready to land on a tree below me. The bird was so close that I almost couldn't get the whole of the bird in the frame on my camera as I was using a 100-400mm lens.
EquipmentCanon 1DX Mark 111 ISO 200 158mm f5.6 1/2000 sec
LocationLookout Flying Fish Cove, Christmas Island
