That pretty bird is really giving you the eye, Frank. Hope he wasn't sizing you up for his next capture...Your series of bird shots is excellent. You must have had a great time watching and photographing the raptors. And your decision to include the young lady was right on.
Have a fine week, my friend. #11384891
