Challenge #138 Birds
I would like to set up a contest. If you would like to do one in a different way afterwards, please feel free to set up your own or you can follow this format. My contest is any photo with birds as the subject. An eagle in flight, pidgeons on a city park bench, etc. Everyone can enter and everyone can help pick the winner. You do not need to enter to vote. To vote simply post your choice for the best overall photo. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will be determined by the number of votes each photo receives. Feel free to offer your reasons for your choices after the voting closes.

since he didn't even move! After initial shock, and not wanting to scare him (thus no tripod, and not too much setup) I stood very still and was able to get a few pics of him before he took off.
