Happy Patrick's Day to you all,

From the Nagle Mountains while looking for Hen Harriers. Plenty of Harriers but not within range of a camera.

1DsII, Sigma 500mm 4.5

Looks like they have definately got smaller ears Michael.
Nice expression and stance. Perhaps a little more needed at the bottom of frame. :toast:

Great pose and comp. Could do with a tad more room at the bottom, but minor.

Minor nit mentioned, a very nice image that certainly shows the differences well.

Great shot. I really like Irish hares and have tried for them a couple of times in Co Clare without too much luck. Nice one.

Cheers for the feedback folks. The light wasn't the greatest and it was bit of an on the fly shot. I have re-cropped to add little more to the bottom and re-processed. MJ
