This chap visited me after a long time.
It was raining since early morning & I was getting ready to go off to work.
I saw this horn bill just land next to my window.

It started with quickly mounting the lens. It was raining still and was pretty overcast.
My subject was in green, I dialed -2/3 exposure and went for a few clicks.
Darn all came out blur. I knew I will not get more shot so I had to quickly increase ISO and had a series again.
Total 7 shots and the bird flew back again.

If it was not my Nikon D7000 and Nikon 300 F4 AF-S it would have been tough. Each time I use it, I love it !

If I have interpreted the act correctly, this is one of the reasons why we get so many of these tiny insects during Monsoon.
