Snowing pretty good here today. Really windy too. Hope everyone is keeping warm.

Got this one a week or so back.

Nice capture. Handsome bird.

Very nice. I love hawks and have tried and tried to get some good pictures of them, but without much success, makes me really appreciate this one!

Nice capture, very sharp. Those guys are hard to focus on, well done.

I really enjoyed trying to capture some of our avain friends near my feeder yesterday, something I don't do often enough. After seeing 99% of my images on screen I can see that I have a long way to go to get captures as nice as this.

Another wonderful flight image to add to your portfolio, well done! :wavey:

Hey Larry , another great capture. Like Wayne, I have tried and haven't even come close to the shots you are posting.

Thanks everyone. Birding has been pretty good this winter.

I've always loved the beautiful plummage on red-taileds, and this is a great example of why - nicely-done, Larry.
