Wildlife Encounters

Sweet action for kids 'n' cretins. Marjoram and capers.

Great photo, well done for capturing the wing like that, and also its talons. My dad is into photography of wildlife, he would be delighted with that.

Great picture. What kind of camera did you shoot this with?

That's what I thought; we need to see the next frame when it carries it away!

I'm impressed, very HQ picture. I have an Android phone and the wife's iPhone amazes me with the picture quality. Honestly, I've gotten too lazy to grab my Cannon DLSR type camera, I just pull out my phone.

I have a nice 35mm Nikon but it doesn't get much use anymore. The phone takes very good photos and it's just so easy to manage. Getting a good shot of things you just happen upon is so easy.

Amazing pic. What is it, red tailed hawk or some class of hawk anyway I'm guessing? Majestic creature.
