p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · I'm trying so hard to keep up with you fellas


As we have such limited areas here in the city, I'm doing the best I can to find these guys and grab them.

There are rumors of American Eagles on the waterfront and I'll be out searching this week. The airport is said to have some snow owls. But security around our airport is tighter than my grandfather's purse strings.

So just a few odds and ends.. I appreciate you guys entertaining me. I've shot people and software boxes, clothes for the last 30 years ! I've never even tried to capture a bird in all this time.. It seemed out of reach for me.

I'm learning so much from you fellas.

No one on this forum is more stunned at the images all of you create, more than I... They bring water to my eyes




Kind of like 'Where's Waldo' it was hard to spot this

Love the owl shot. Their camoflauge is amazing.

That owl shot is why I always check every hole in everytree. Never what you might find.

Very impressive that you saw the owl in the first place; very nice shot as well.

Nice diverse set here, John. It's remarkable that you even saw the owl, let alone captured such a great photo!

Owl shot gets a huge and a from me. I can't believe you saw that owl in there unless it was calling out. I do like the owl image as presented but I would also love to see a 2nd version with a tight crop just of the owl and the oval of wood around it.

Canada goose is a good shot but I find the rocks in the background distract from the bird as they are very similar colour.

The doves are nice and I would try to remove that upper left red spot OR crop in to just show the right side bird that has a better head angle and pose.

Good looking set John. Neat how the wood immediately below the owl's head kinda looks like an owl body.

Great owl shot, I almost guaranty I would have missed it.

The proper name for #3 is hawk food.

There's more wildlife in and around cities than most folks realize, and once you really start looking for it, you'll be amazed by what shows up.

That owl shot is fabulous. It is amazing how well they are naturally hidden.

The owl is a nice catch - for both your eyes and your camera. A nice job John ~ Ron
