This photo have been taken in the Walter Sisulu Botanical gardens inSouth AfricaTime
The photo was taken around 12:00 after my morning shift monitoring the Verreaux's black eagles. I went to the bird hide in the gardenLighting
The only thing i can say it was a very bright sunny afternoon to use fast shutter speedsEquipment
I used a Nikon D500 and a Tamron 150-600 mm G2 lensInspiration
