Nice capture of this red-tailed hawk against the distractive grasses on the ground beneath him, Bill! Your a9 really held focus nicely on the bird.

Fantastic flight shot, Steve! These little buggers are so difficult to capture sharply, in flight, as you did here with this kingbird.

Thanks very much, Mike! I agree that these guys are not the best straight-line type of flyers...to which my other 80 shots can attest. ߘ
