Great diagonal lines in your capture here, Dan. Another fine image!

Another winner! You are the "bird man".
Great angle and detail!

Beautiful shot Dan. Reminds me of a B-52 coming in for a landing.

That's about as good as it gets in taking a bird of prey shot. Tack sharp!

As good as it gets, for sure!
Love the light and the angle of the wings here. Simply perfect!

Nice shot Dan.

Nice shot Dan and good exposure on a bird that is NOT easy to expose properly. BTW, with the angle towards the nest, is the light better there in the morning or evening?
