Day dreaming of times gone by that were less filled with vitriol and controversy....when The Wall was a Pink Floyd album and no trump was a term my parents only mentioned playing bridge and not a rallying call by over half the electorate.

Beautiful images, Eric. I am dreaming too; dreaming one day I can get some shots like yours.

You do find the martial eagles. I'd enlarge that leopard shot for the wall; I know I said that about the dog shot on your last post. Do the two!

Thanks Don....one day I'll get around to printing something, anything. Getting that close to martial eagles is quite something...I see them every once in a while but never anything like with the warthog kill...and the juvi was seen only 5 minutes before the kill was found.

Excelent set Eric.

Our checks and balances are Trumping Mr. President. He is starting to talk about doing things in a more legal fashion. This alone will slow him down as it has every president that has preceded him.

Beautiful set, Eric. Well, maybe not part of #2. Love the comp of the Tawny Eagle and the timing of the Hornbill.

I echo your sentiment, and the hidden birder is struggling to break the shackles. The faraway look of the leopard is classic Eric shot.

Time will tell....governing is proving to be a challenge in so many ways.

Thanks Rex....as much as I like the cats, those days that don't produce them but do let me focus on birds can be some of the best. It is not common to get shots of martial eagles with big prey so whilst I share your feelings of that not being "pretty" it does showing pretty graphically just what these massive and powerful raptors are capable of.

Thanks KD....For me, it's all relative...I do enjoy birds and once I am in that frame of mind I really get into it...but of course, cats and the other mammals rule most of the days.

I am always curious about what they think....when we are alone and considering the world we have those inner conversations and whist I know these guys don't have an inner voice there must be something in their consciousness that is their equivalent.
