jodelak Cream of the Crop  More info | Nov 16, 2012 02:19 | #1 Never thought I'd hear this, some folks were talking about the number of hawks in the area actually outnumbering the crows. I must be in heaven. Here are some shots, some are very heavily cropped.  #2 Juvenile Peregrine Falcon  #3  #4 Short-eared Owl  #5  #6 Rough-legged Hawk  #7  #8  Thanks for looking and c&c always welcome. ... does it really matter?i see with my eyes, i shoot with my fingers.

Nov 16, 2012 07:39 | #8 All great shots, and I especially like #2, 6 and 8. The exposure between #2 and #3 seems a bit different. Were you using a semi-auto mode or did you adjust in post differently?

The exposure between #2 and #3 seems a bit different. Were you using a semi-auto mode or did you adjust in post differently? Thanks, the difference are probably because of different ISO, I did played around with the modes because I was anticipating the falcon will fly, catch and prey, and go back to this perch. And like most of the time, I was wrong CDMOOSE wrote in post #15252541 Good for you, Jo; great shots all around and congrats on the Rough-leg.

Nov 16, 2012 10:30 | #14 Fantastic set, Jo. All very sharp. great light. I was up there on dark Tuesday, this week. Saw one snowy owl at Reifel and eight at Boundary Bay. They were all way out by the water's edge and one was on a stick out in the water. Yes, lots of raptors.
