Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
Was helping with a bird of prey demo yesterday. Was pretty cool, i had a bird on my hand all day long. Sometimes a falcon, sometimes and eagle owl or a barn owl. Those eagle owls are pretty heavy....like 2 kilo. Doesnt sound like alot, but when you are standing for 30 minutes with a bird like that on your hand, your arm begins to ache :lol:
We didnt fly with the birds this time, just show and tell. Were lots of people in the place and interested too. So, it was a great day. Didnt take too many pictures though.
But here are 3 that i likes:
Barn Owl, bit soft but i still like it

Falcon, a hybrid (so a crossing between 2 falcon species)

The falcon and the eagle owl are great. Sharp and detailed.

The Falcon is awesome, and the eyes on the Owl are beautiful.
 
Beautiful shots! I always make note to look at any post with you name on it because I know I won't be disappointed!
 
#3 is my favorite those eye and the shot wow amazing
thks for those nice shot
 
thanks for the comments and compliments :)
The reason why i posted the first pic (eventhough its soft) is because i never seem to get a shot of a barn owl like that. Looking straight into the camera. And now i did, so i had to post it :)
 
Well that Barn Owl is a bit of a cutie, love the Falcon shot and yep those Eagle Owl eyes are just out of this world

well I guess I'd better post the bird portrait I took today
