Very nice photos - did you calibrate your "bigma" to your 7d? I can't get photos this sharp with mine.

yes we did had the same problem to start with nothing sharp
did it with a old light weight tri pod, a page stuck to a board
so not proper but it worked ok .

Wow! That's a beautiful Kite. I have never seen one of those. I have a mating pair of Mississippi Kites that return every year to a big oak tree in front of my barn and they are rather strange looking. Sort or ghostly. This year they returned with last years chick in tow.

Great shots! Amazing!! I believe this is an adult White tailed Kite!
No. It is a Black Shouldered Kite. A common Australian bird stunningly photographed.
Let us see a few more of them.
