During the 2025 Brazil's Northern Pantanal workshop, we came across this actively hunting White-headed Marsh Tyrant at water level! I quickly switched to ProCap SH2 because it is too hard to predict their take off. I only use ProCap drive modes for action I can't predict!

Which of the images do you prefer? Some had to be cropped for compositional purposes.

My settings were as follows:

OM-1 Mark II | M.Zuiko 150-400mm F4.5 TC1.25x IS PRO

1/2500's | F5.6 | ISO 2500 | ProCap SH2 | Bird AI Subject Detection 

Handheld | Processed in DxO PureRaw | Edited in Lightroom Classic
