Northontguy wrote in post #13877689 Good shooting. The BG on the 1st one is nice. I need to learn to think BG more. Thanks for sharing. I appreciate your comment. It's one thing to think about BG, but another thing when the bird is willing to let you choose the BG. I usually take what I can get. dbriz wrote in post #13877806 Good morning Stan and good looking shots... always enjoy images that give the impression that the bird enjoys posing  ... this guy looks like an experienced one.Not much happening here on the frozen tundra, got some Snowy Owl and Northern Hawk Owl shots last week... other than that... waiting for spring birds to arrive, which seems a long ways off. Dave Good morning, Dave. Thanks for looking in. I've been wondering where you were. Hope things are OK there. Also hope you will post your recent shots, always love to see your winter birds.
