I saw this beautiful Red-tailed Hawk at Cerro Cabrillo opposite Black Hill 8-31-06 http://ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/Raptor_Watch/photos/browse/72f3 ...
High winds have been hampering my shooting the last few days. I went out late last evening in what some photographers call "the golden hour" just before...
Got around to looking at a few images that were shot a couple of days ago on another memory card. A kestrel was beating up on one of the juvenile red-tails....
Such a beautiful aerial display! It makes me feel like a plodding giant, so earthbound! Maybe that is why I am attracted to sail planes...not that I have, but...
This young kite sat for about ten minutes before taking off. I think the wind rufffled it more than I did. It even circled around and hovered briefly for me. ...
That's an amazing set of photos...I think this bird is getting comfortable with you, Cleve. Thanks for the great shots! Dianna [Non-text portions of this...
Nice Cleve....once again I am SO impressed with the smoothness of the feathers, and the delicacy of the bird...yet it looks as though it has gone too far off...
I'll have to agree with you, Dianna. Much as I love peregrines, there is a grace and etheral quality to these kites. If it hadn't been for Cleve's photos...
Thank you Judy and Dianna. They are truly striking creatures. But I'm afraid my photos fall far short of capturing the beauty of their motion. However, this...
Yesterday, I found a way to get closer to the kite evening rendezvous area. I have posted a few photos of hovering kites. Also, there is a poignant picture of...
Very nice, Cleve, and just fine work. I really appreciate these close- up views into their daily lives. The Northern Harrier photos were gorgeous also. We did...
Congratulations on the Swarovski, Dianna. You can do some great digiscoping with that little jewel. ... close- ... and ... perched ... etc. ... with ... going ...
Well, maybe it adds something to the "ethereal beauty", but the darn fog put the damper on my video plans this evening. Still, I counted 14 kites at one point,...
First clear day of the week. This marsh hawk (northern harrier) was terrorizing kite town. It wasn't attacking, just flying though low and back, forth and...
Those with kite fatigue are advised to skip this message. Okay, kite fans (all three of you), hold onto your socks. I'll start off easy with a couple taken in...
You are selling your photos short, Cleve. The only thing my brother will come to the computer for is when he is told there are more kite photos. We have both...

These are so beautiful it makes me want to weep...you did good, Cleve! Only one problem...I will be wanting some of these photos too. I'll wait a bit so you...
Hi Dianna, As always, I appreciate the kind words. Also, I received you check and terrific card. Thank you! I have made many greeting and note cards for ...
Thanks, Chris and David. This has been a banner year for raptors in the San Simeon area, especially red-tails. In a field where I frequntly photograph, where I...
I thought I should forward this to raptor watch. It was such a great day. We also had a WHITE-TAILED KITE AND 5 NORTHERN HARRIERS on the plain. We saw a...
