You nailed this short-eared owl shot beautifully, Sid!

Thanks Mike, it's that time of year for us so there will be plenty more where that came from! :lol:

Quite an attractive flight shot of the kestrel, EB! I love the banking position you caught her in. It's very appealing.

Outstanding capture of these three hen pintails, Steve! It must be a gal's day only outing. :-)
