Time

afternoon

Lighting

It was a nice bright day, with clouds that softened the shadows

Equipment

Sony DSLR-A380, Sigma 70-300mm, handheld

Inspiration

I'd been photographing them in flight, and saw some gathering nesting materials, so I crawled through the nettles to get closer, and photographed him from 5 feet away

Editing

A slight vibrancy boost and sharpening

In my camera bag

2x DSLR-A380 bodies, 18-70mm, 70-300mm, 170-500mm, flash unit, GorillaPod and tripod

Feedback

Research the locations of your target species, and the best times to see them. Watch them to see where they go and what they do, and it will give you a better chance to get a better shot.
