wow, fantastic capture Brian!! Great shots. I hope to one day be able to take a shot of one of the bigger birds of prey that fly around here, but there are so few of them, one has to be lucky to see one, and when you do, they go off straight away :-( eternity65 · 2010-01-10: 08:57

Amazing. Love the stink eye in #3 and the capture in #6. You should submit that one to Nat Geo. websterella · 2010-01-10: 09:17
