This is one of those shots where electronic flash was essential. The head was bobbing in and out very rapidly in every direction, and all you can really do is pre-focus and take plenty of shots, hoping the head and neck will be in the plane of focus (and even in the frame). Got lucky on this one, and it provided one of the better looks I've had of the head of an active live specimen.
