Nice set Herb, I'm going for no.2 as my pick - I like the background colour as well as the bird.

Herb...
Incrediable and outstanding images..!

Can you share your technique on focusing as you shoot as well as mode settings, ie: spot, evaluated...and anything else you can share on your Canon. Are you using monopod or ?

Thanks,
Scuppy

Fantastic photo's as usual Herb!

I did have a technique question on the hawks. Are using a blind? Shoot from car? Stand? How are you getting close enough to get good hunting shots?

I do OK with owls and eagles, but struggle to get good proximity to hunting hawks.

Any tips?

Bill


Dress in full camouflage, make gentle steps, minimize eye contact and approach slowly.
