p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Birds on bad perches


Managed to see a couple of nice subjects but alas it was one of those days - nice subjects but crummy perches.

First is a Krider's red-tailed hawk (a first for me) on a very thorny bush

D4, Nikkor 800mm, f/5.6, 1/4000, ISO 400

Next is a barred owl that seemed to think it was well camouflaged behind that branch with the lichens on it

You did the best you could with the circumstances by the looks of it. Congrats on the hawk. Too bad the barred is being barred by that extra branch. Good looking image regardless.

Congratulations on the hawk.

You are right about the perches Trey, but these are still nice ~ Ron

Thanks Geoff. I could probably get rid of that branch but it just isn't worth the effort. This is the sort of shot that makes me get back out there and get a better one.

I kept waiting on that hawk to move closer but alas as typical, hawks always fly the opposite direction! Very cool looking hawk though.

Thanks Mark. I fear I have more of these types of images than I care to think about!

Thanks Morris. I kind of like it despite the branch. Always fun to see owls in the woods.

I like both of these Trey... first time for me to see the Krider's red-tailed hawk, beautiful raptor and I love the wider angle view.
Nice job on the Barred Owl too.

Thanks Kirk. The Krider's would have been ok if it had been a little higher up on that branch but I was pumped to see it. Seeing a new variation for the first time is cool.
