common buzzard

Really like the first shot, great wing position, background showing environment without distracting, and of course the rain. Makes me feel I'm there watching the hunt. Very nice.

Great candid shot of this Canada Goose LD. Not sure what he's saying, but I suspect it may not be polite!

Many thanks, EB. I doubt that they have anything nice to say to us humans.;-)a

Thanks very much for the great comment EBCowboy, it's always good to hear what makes a photo appealing to others. cheers! :)

Thanks Mike, as it happens this particular juvenile has started hanging out at the pond area right in front of my hide, I've watched it hunting from the perches there, I don't know what it was catching as the grass is too long to see, trying to catch beetles off the surface of the pond and just hanging out. Yesterday afternoon I was 1/2 hour late for my dinner because the bird was not leaving the area and I didn't want to just get out the hide and scare it off, had to wait and take pictures off course. I got a trail cam there all the time and that has produced tons of footage of the bird at the pond too. My hide is about 2 metres behind the trail cam.

Vid doesn't seem to work, if you click on the link it will take you to flickr where it does work!
