Taken with a Canon Powershot

Taken this Sunday. Me thinks she will be having a few llittle ones soon!!! ;) I can't wait!! Now I know how excited Mat was with "LD"

Taken With a Canon Poweshot.. Very cloudy over cast day!

This is a Ferruginous Hawk (Female) She has been coming back to this same nest for the last 4 years. I know I only have 3 years of snaps,but the first year my husband and I saw her I didn't own a camera. The last snap is of her two babies she had gosh I had a hard time taking these snaps because I wanted so much to just sit and watch them. Everyone one knows the one behind the camera misses out on alot of the actual viewing.

vollenda So amazing to see her thru the years and her young. She is gorgeous and so are your photos of her.

LastFrontier Your first image captures such a classic, magnificent stance. Well done! What elevation are you? I'm guessing about 6,500 feet, perhaps Douglas County (from your snow photos)? At any rate, beautiful!
