Very nice set! Where in Idaho were you? I lived in Boise/Kuna area for 12 years and frequently visit it may deserve another photo taking trip.

Wow, phenomenal shots. Just checked out your website after seeing your 500mm lens for sale.

I was just in Idaho. My daughter goes to school in Pullman, Wa, about 5 miles or so from Moscow, Idaho. Only thing I saw to photograph was the Palouse and some nice barns.

Wow, just wow.

You shot the Short Eared Owl south of Kuna. Birds of Prey area overlooking the Snake River? I have never seen one out there. What time of day?

Terrific series, my favorites are the Swainson's and the nighthawk. Just beautiful images.

I saw them several times. In the mornings and afternoons.
