I never cease to be amazed at the quality of your pictures. That kestral is awesome! And you perfectly captured the one female goose in that quartet of white fronted shot.

Thanks for the compliments. sometimes I get lucky. I thought every one would be sick of this thread by now, but I see it's had 101K hits so some one must be looking at it. Today I'm going to post a few of my favorite pics. Got some new pics yesterday, I'll post them tomorrow. I really like this pic of a juvenile Bald Eagle.

This is a Merlin about the same size as a Kestral but we seldom see them.





An art Gallery owner I know had this one made into greeting cards and sold them in her gallery.
