Yes, this set of six raptor photos were taken in Downsview Park in Toronto.

The first one is my favorite. Is that a Kestrel? So beautiful!

I am both delighted and disappointed Dinu.
Just one more raptor in your line-up and you might very well have offered a portrait of the Magnificent Seven.
If this group could only work as a team it would be awesome.

Haha, adding one more will squeeze these ones so much so that you have to use magnifying glass to see them on your screen. The other raptors that I have seen and photographed in Downsview Park include, Great Horned Owl, Northern Saw Whet Owl, Barred Owl, Merlin, Peregrine Falcon, Bald Eagle, Sharp-shinned Hawk, Cooper's Hawk, Rough-legged Hawk and last but not the least Turkey Vulture. They altogether make up Dinu's sixteen and they are all magnificent.

Ah well, let's face it Dinu, the Magnificent Sixteen is just so pretentious.
Still, to think that one park with its barren fields should support so
much rapt killing suggests that we should rename it the killing fields.
