Nature's foostep, Springman and Pat, thank you very much for the views and comments. I love the raptors. This may sound like an 'ah duh' thing to say. But, I do know a few people who don't. They only like the little birds, the ones they regard as pretty. But, what beauty in the power of that flight!
Such a stately looking bird

We see quite a few of these, but I've never been able to get a good photo. Love seeing yours!

Gorgeous how its wingtips are distinctly splayed to catch the air.

love the wing tips. :)
ReplyDeleteTexWisGirl, thank you. Such and odd point of view for the bird, too. Head on is not the usual raptor angle.
ReplyDeletegreat capture of the hawk, love how all the wing tip feathers are very distinct
ReplyDeleteCrafty, thank you. To get that kind of sharpness in a moving subject is not easy to do. I'm thrilled so many viewers have appreciated that.
ReplyDeleteNice capture Robin!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
ReplyDeleteBoom and Gary, thank you guys. You know just how hard a shot that was, too!
ReplyDeleteLove the picture of this stately bird. Coming directly toward you is always hard to get.
ReplyDeleteYes, indeed, Bill S. Thanks for appreciating that.
ReplyDeleteVery nice photo of the hawk in flight.
ReplyDeleteVery nice capture of this magnificent bird.
ReplyDeleteRegards and best wishes
Wow! Terrific shot!
ReplyDeleteMick, Tatjana, Andrew and Joo, thanks to all of you for looking and commmenting. I appreciate you all.
ReplyDeletegreat shot of a beautiful hawk. :)
ReplyDeleteNice shot Robin! I was glad to hear your Mum has reached 102 years of age. At only 90 my mom is still a youngin'
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, wingtip to wingtip!
