Today's Raptor roundup

[coastalconn]

There were so many raptors out today. I didn't get pictures of all of them, but saw 3 eagles, 1 Peregrine Falcon, 1 Merlin, 2 Juvi Red Shoulder and 3 adults, about 8 Red Tail Hawks and 5 Harriers. It was actually sunny and above freezing in CT.. Woohoo... Comments welcome and thanks for looking..

6 Red Tail out-going. Gotta love snow cover on a bright day, it's like a giant reflector!

All are great, but I think #2 is an outstanding capture.

Yeah, these are good. I like #1.

I'm liking 4 and 6 best. Sounds like a beautiful day out.

CC, great images. My favourite is #4. The look just says - "No one told me the water would freeze over", or some other feeling of disgust with the white stuff.

#5 & 6 for me, the fan of those feathers, very cool

Great, again.
Maybe they all saw the chance to get out and find something to eat? I wonder if they've been hunkered down in this weather too? Kind of like fish feeding like crazy just before a storm? Oh, oh..
