#6 thanks for looking





#6







#7 Excuse the poor IQ, for behavior and size. Here's a female harrier pinching a short eared because he swapped his vole to his beak instead of getting it taken away.

Nice work with the 1120 f/8 Herb!! Great shots once again.

I never realized how small these guys are till I got to see one for the first time....the one I saw resides in the office of the veterinarian at the Wildlife Preserve...it is permanently injured but is a great attraction to the young kids that visit!!

Hope you don't mind me posting this to give people an idea of how small these guys are. Let me know and I will take it down!!

Thanks Geoff. Yes these birds are only 12-16 inches tall and have a 3 to 4 foot wingspan. They only weigh 11-12 ounces usually.

As you know. With these guys the eyes tell the story and what a great job you did with the eyes. #6 is a
killer shot IMO.

Wonderful images, Herb- all of them.
That behavioral scene is pretty wild. A "pinch" from a hawk could be seriously damaging I'd think- if it caught hold of the owl's flesh. Did it?
