This Yellow-billed Cuckoo was seen in the backyard looking for a quick meal which turned out to be one of my prized Black Swallowtail caterpillars. He grabbed one and I ran out with the camera. Fair trade, I suppose, for a nice shot of the bird. Canon EOS 7D, Canon EF 300mm f/4L IS USM lens at f/5, 1/500sec, -.7EV, ISO 400.
