Sometimes the best thing you can do when photographing wildlife is to wait for something to happen.  It is amazing how often patience pays off.

The image was crated using a Canon 1D mark 4, 120-300mm Sigma lens with a 1.4 teleconverter attached, at 400 ISO.  The lens was mounted on a Gitzo tripod with a ball head.
