Northern Harrier Hawk

[Canoncan]

Caught this Raptor just before he dove into the grass. Not the best shot but my first Harrier.

You say it is not your best shot, but then it is not bad either. I like it. I find it very hard to catch birds in fight, you should be proud of yourself.

Very nice. Scarlett is correct, flight shots are tough, nice work!

wow, beauty shot Canoncan!! where did you find such great hawk??

 

[Fuzzy1]

Damn! One of those have been on my list all summer. Great Job!

 

[LizM]

I like! His facial markings make him look so fierce.

EXACTLY! Well said, Travis! My thoughts exactly!

Not your best shot?
Well, I have finally scanned the only hawk photo I ever managed to get so far in all my life, and I will post it in a thread of its own just so you can get a laugh

Cool shot Canoncan. I wont even attempt this, till I get a crow and a heron.

Well, my thread is up now for you to laugh, it is here http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35045 and I think I'll add my two crow pics to that same thread, so you can laugh even more! Nothing comes close to what you call "not the best shot" then....... believe me!

Another beauty! I love the tones here. All I really want to see is a closer crop.
