Nice shots Glenn. I love seeing how adaptable red-tails are, not to mention falcons. Our raptor survey this morning brought back an old friend...W/M (Peale's...
Ditto on Glenn's photos. Urban raptor photography must present its own unique challenges. And thanks, Dianna, for taking the time to share your stories from ...
If we're raptors, apparently not. Today was a day of battling birds. It started with a red-tail attacking a young golden that was perched on the crest of a...
cleve, those photos ... WOW!!!! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection...
Thanks, Devra. Not nearly so much action yesterday or today - - at least not visible in our gloomy weather. I think this guy felt the same way I did about the...
It's been a mostly gloomy week. But this morning, the sun managed to get between the clouds from time to time. My morning started with a very pretty red-tail...
Your latest sequence on the two goldens was worth waiting for eh? I spent about three hours out on Saturday and didn't see much other than a some redtails...
These were a joy to view, Cleve. The twisting in flight makes me realize how stiff my poor back really is!!! Evet _____ From: Raptor_Watch@yahoogroups.com...
Glad you enjoyed them, Evet. The big eagles' suppleness and agility in the air are pretty amazing. ... realize ... [mailto:Raptor_Watch@yahoogroups.com] On ......
This morning, a young golden eagle was posing on a rock outcropping 250 yards away. The light was marginal, but I put a doubler on my telescope setup anyway,...
That IS a very handsome bird -- almost looks like he/she knows it, too!!! Whatever happened to the tatty Peregrine at the Marina? I especially enjoyed the...
Nice job Cleve. At that distance he is so unconcerned about you that he just poses away. It's really hard for me to wrap my understanding around 4240mm at...
4240mm at f/40, WOW!!! And I thought I was happy with 1000mm at f/8. Great shots. One of my trips up there you'll have to show me this set-up. BJ Stacey BJ ...
Well, Evet, I haven't seen Moonbeam McFalcon (you have to be old enough to remember L'il Abner) in about a month. But I have only been by the marina a half...
Thanks, BJ. I'll show you the setup, but I don't think even a guy your size can hand-hold it. ... of my trips up there you'll have to show me this set-up....
Too bad, I could have used it today for a Golden Eagle that I found. As it was, I took some shots at 1000mm, and even with cropping the photos were pretty...
Hi BJ! Enjoyed the shots and I also enjoyed the web page and how the photos were presented on it. I especially enjoyed the Ferruginous Hawk -- powerful visage...
Darn good shooting with what you had at hand, BJ. I saw all of those same species today and couldn't get anything in the viewfinder worth pushing the shutter...
I was at the Morro Bay State Park Marina this morning and took a picture of a Peregrine Falcon atop a mast complete with intrusive antenna. Does anyone know...
Fine photo, Maggie. So are the others on your flickr site. You're doing great with your new camera! That's the falcon Evet was asking about in her post a...
You may feel that way if you looked at the golden eagle posing photos I posted on 11/15. But these were taken this morning - - same bird, same place, many of...
This morning started off partly gloomy in my neighborhood. I didn't have high hopes for photography conditions but didn't want to stay home and be put to work....
There was a 7.0 high tide this morning in Morro Bay so all the birds were pushed up to the shoreline. I saw several raptors around the estuary including...
