I am WAY behind! I spent all day yesterday at Finley Wildlife Preserve practicing in flight captures. One of the most exciting moments was when two hawks and a juvenile bald eagle took each other on for dibs on lunching on geese. I wish I had gotten a clearer capture of the moment when the eagle and one of the hawks did in flight battle. This is the best I got but what an experience to watch!
Thanks so much for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs. They mean a lot to me. I will do my best to visit your albums later today.
Great processing of a picture that was perhaps not one of the best initially...goes to show that one should think twice before discarding pictures, because this is such a special and challenging capture, you would not want it to go to the dustbin. Full marks for technical ability, both in capturing and processing!
Brilliant! I was lucky enough to see sea eagles talon clasping in Scotland once and then a golden eagle joined in. I was interested to learn that the smaller eagles tend to be more 'provocative' and that crows are even more likely to start a fight!
I decided to check back in - I'm glad to see you're still at it! I don't know how you keep it up. My project wore me out.
