Great captures k55, I like the compositions and unusual setting. I'd be thrilled just to spot one, even from a distance.

Nice shots, if a little dark (for me).

Both are nice shots and I love that second one! Looks similar to our American Kestrel...one of my favorite birds.

Nice shots and no power lines. (Their usual hang out when I try to get their picture.)
