Deliberation

2008.01.23

Hmmm. Serious deliberation. Should I sit here looking regal? Or should I attack the creature with the camera? Choices, choices....

I think this is a young Ferruginous hawk.

Near Ethete, Wyoming

MHJphotos Birds of Prey are fantastic! I LOVE to see them. This shot is a winner - good for chapter 2 of your next coffee table book! I saved as a fave too!

I see you're putting your 300mm to good use!

Jannie Jackie, this is a fantastic shot! Did you get your 300mm lens? I'm wondering how far away you were. I see the same hawk almost every morning in the same spot on my way to work. I need to stop & snap it one day. This shot is inspiring!!
