Young Eagle

Posted By Robert Watters
One of many Eagle shots I got today. A little burned out on his head but I'm happy with it. Looks to be fairly young, maybe his second year???

Ring-Billed Gull

I like the way this one came out with the nice dark bluff line behind him.

Pheasants

Posted By Robert Watters
Came across these guys the other day. Unusal to see them out in the open like this but maybe the 8+ inches of snow this past week had something to do with it.

Redtails

Posted By Robert Watters
Probably my best effort so far, I'll keep trying. Hard to get close to these guys, even in a vehicle.

Shrike

Posted By Robert Watters
Not the best shots but it is a first sighting and photo for me. smile
Unfortunately I couldn't maneuver around to get a front light shot. sad
I haven't been able to nail a positive ID either. I think it is either a Northern Shrike or a Loggerhead Shrike. I'm leaning more towards the Northern because the Loggerhead is considered "endangered" in this area (northern IL.) and because the eye mask doesn't appear to go over the brow.


Any guesses??
