Historic Ranch with cows and raptors

[zulu42]

Four generations lived at the Dangberg ranch which eventually covered 48,000 acres. The Ranch home and buildings are operated by a historical society and are open to the public. Still an active cattle ranch, the birthing cows attract eagles. Everyone comes to see the eagles, but I've never gotten a close shot of an eagle here. One day I will. Lots of other raptors in the area!

Real nice set and hard to pick a favorite. A toss up between the close-up calf and the Kestrel.

Great set! Nice shot of the Kestrel. What is the bluish background in the eagle shot, the mountains?

I like the natural framing on the prairie falcon shot.
