From my journeys today...I think the results speak for themselves.

I am squeamish, but these are fantastic pictures Attila - very sharp & clear.  Do fries come with that?

Very cool 8)  Not to often we get to see a bird of prey with a kill.
Excellant work, thanks for sharing.

Moira - glad you could handle them, and no, I don't think fries were on the menu.  :lol:

Luv2Bird - thanks for your kind words, they are appreciated.

Clemens - thank you for your kind words.  It is true, we rarely get a chance to see a bird of prey with a kill, especially with one the size of a squirrel.  Neat that we have the ability to capture such moments for all to enjoy.
