a kite

i was geared to shoot sunset the other day, got up high in one of the gun-casement (used during the war) at point peron when this kite perched near the area.....as a birdnut and armed with the beercan, i tracked it to capture some photos hehehe....

That's a great shot of the Black-shouldered Kite, aa. Have not had one in our neighbourhood for a couple of years. What's the focal length range of the "beercan" ?
