    A few raptors

    Word of warning - whenever you run across a flock of crows hanging around, there is usually a reason. I assumed they were mobbing an owl, but I was a bit surprised when this eagle took off. It wasn't the best time of the day to be shooting, but I'll take what I can get.

    Wonderful shots, that second eagle shot is my favourite. You even got a catch light in its eye.

    And, I believe he has part of a crow feather in his beak.

    Thanks for the comments, all.

    Wow Knight, you have quite the memory. That was a year ago next month.
