Power Flight (c)
(c) in title for captive bred

This is another shot taken the other day whilst out in the snow covered fields with our birds.

Just wanted to capture a power flight & determined look.

Thanks for looking :toast:

Is this a young bird or is that standard eye colour, I learnt that young ospreys have this colour eyes.
Looks like you're enjoying your bargain purchase, what a lucky fella you are.

Thanks Tim for the placing the only comment/question to this image :toast: Looking at the original image & working close with the Owl, his eyes are normally that colour, he is an adult Owl at the age of 9.

With regards to the new lens, all I can say is that I think it is the best purchase I have made, it's quick & incredibly sharp!

Maybe I am lucky to have it but at half the price how could anyone resist, to be honest I was very surprised it was not snapped up by one of Fixations customers especially as they advertised over a 5day period.

Would I buy this lens at the normal retail price? No!
Would I buy any of my kit at a retail price? No!
