[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 26423, member: 6548"] Those are great pictures sir! The raptors are incredible subjects. Recently I got to make a shot of a bald eagle myself however mine is nowhere near as cool as your's are...I did however get very lucky a few months ago...on the way to work I found a baby red-tailed hawk on the roadside...I "rescued" him if you will because he was just sitting there in the road fixing to be ran over the way people drive around here. I was given the special opportunity to hold the baby raptor in my hands. I called the zoo at about 10 AM that morning and let them know I was going to bring them a fresh out of the nest hawk sometime that afternoon...the fledling hung out with me all day at my shop...at noon he surprised me because he flew out of the garage over to the AC unit...he sat there and slept until about 3 PM at which point I went over and tried to feed him something...he didn't do anything so I whistled at him...he looked at me a flew away!!! I guess he was tired! LOL [IMG]http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o113/runwhatyoubrung/hawk.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
