So I finally ran into Big Frank at the bluffs and here are a few of the best shots I took this afternoon.  I had a great time and look forward to doing it all again soon....... or in the spring if I miss the rest of the migration lol.

Juvenile Bald Eagle - The one o'clock Eagle Frank kept telling us about... he showed up at 1:05 =P





Sharp Shinned Hawks - Various birds from throughout the day.  We saw lots of these guys at varying heights throughout my time there.







I am sure I have a few of a Harrier we saw but I can't seem to find them.  175 shots taken so I have a few more to sort through.  I'll post them when I find them and finish the post processing on them.

Enjoy

Glad U enjoyed yourself and got some good shots. The last photo U posted is the local Coopers Hawk I think. The Bald Eagle was a definete highlight! Look forward to seeing you again.

It was nice to meet you also at the park today.  Totally jealous of the bald eagle.  Your shots were great - congrats.  Darn work -  wish I didn't have to go back I would have loved to have taken a shot also.  

Hope to see you out again.

Ann

PS The great blue heron came over my house at 5:05 tonight again.  I will try to get a shot of him flying over tomorrow.

The third pic looks like a female or juvenile Northern Harrier.  Good Shots.
