A few more from Yesterday

[BillM]

Snowy was kind enough to drive along side this Harrier for a few miles so I could get a couple shots

At one point it came really close to something small gray and furry but just missed.









Any ID help on this one ???







The End

 

[BillM]

One more

Great shots Bill. That second one is just gorgeous.

 

[coastalconn]

Very nice. Juvenile Red Tail. Guess you like the lens?

 

[BillM]

Thank you both

Kris
I really wanted to wait for the reviews on the new Sigma's but when MIke said the Snowy Owls were back I just couldn't wait. The Tamron is so small and light that I could easily carry it all day. I just got lucky finding one local on such short notice. I actually think it might be lighter than my 70-200.

Here is the quick sequence of that juvie leaving the flagpole.







Love the shadow of the talons on the wing in this one

Bill here's the one I got when that old buzzard (and I don't mean the feathered kind) scared it away

Great shots, all of them!

 

[BillM]

Thanks goooner


It was a fun day of shooting.

Very nice. I like those Harriers.

And here is something flying that doesn't have feathers



And a shot Mike took with my camera, they were on his side of the truck.
