Thanks everyone for the kind words. I had only seen them in books and some here till last weekend. I was with a good friend that spotted them and we shot the one for a while and then heard a commotion and the second one came screamin over. the first pic is the Second bird and the second was the one that was there . The one was noticebly smaller ...
