Very Funny. I do the same thing of course.<br />Your Hawk looked like he appreciated that stony perch! <br /> And now for Owen...who thought better of linking his Thanksgiving day thoughts and pictures to WBW. I would never second guess Owen. But if by chance you drop down lower on this page you will find a link for his Magic Lantern Show. Caution: It is mind expanding!Springmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09094132506583563094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2475638899054945042.post-1490765186277267862010-12-02T06:23:33.460-05:002010-12-02T06:23:33.460-05:00A 400mm lens is a great investment.

It is fantasy play.<br /><br />Phylliso, I think you will find Linky easy to navigate. It makes a get together like this possible. I can't wait to see your post!<br /><br />Lasse, I have a feeling we'll be seeing more of that adult Eagle and the two immature Eagles sometime soon. I am meeting a few folks who promise to give me better access to the edges of these industrially owned fenced off reservoirs. Alaska it ain't! Still, I am happy for my community that these iconic raptors are back with us!Springmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09094132506583563094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2475638899054945042.post-50162275775890931592010-12-01T09:06:13.831-05:002010-12-01T09:06:13.831-05:00Strong and powerful picture of that eagle!
